Today I'm sharing some pretty little pillow projects with you! : ) I recently learned how to embroider, and on long trips I like to practice. Here are a couple of my latest projects.
Tatting, crochet and embroidery, oh my! Add some extra bling - and it's complete!
The embroidery part is my work, and the crochet and tatting were already done; I just sewed them on.
I also made this pretty cake this week, and thought I might as well photograph it as well. It's a birthday cake for a lovely friend.
Every week I have coffee with a lovely group of friends, and we celebrate each person's birthday with cake and presents. We have been meeting once a week for coffee and conversation and support for the past 11 years. We take turns providing the cake, and it was my turn this time. Here is the box I decorated for the cake.
I used a Dover clip art CD, and printed on pretty scrapbook paper.
Next, I made this sweet bookmark for her.
My project for next week is to finish this pillow...
I used a combination of fabrics, crochet, beads and embroidery. Next I'll add a ruffle of red velvet.
Happy Creating!
Catherine
