This is the finished ribbon embroidery I experimented with i have been trying to decide what I can do with it Have now decided to upcycle a wooden box I purchased last year so that’s my next project .i will use this for the lid hopefully

The wood embroidery is finished it will be backed with felt and a material hinge ready to go on a crochet basket.

THIS IS A WORKS IN PROGRESS and

will be the lid to a crochet basket with a plain wood base . All the dark dots are little .holes you embroider through

My quick project, Jade and Ethan asked me to crochet one. She sent a picture and I made up my own pattern from the picture.

I used plastic canvas in between two pieces of crochet to make a stiff stand up piece then added the arms and legs.

Latest hand sewing project I have included a mix of ribbon and thread embroidery, just made up as I went along ,

I still need laces for threading through the loops for closure , but cant reach them in my stash .

The octagon cardigan is finished, the brown is king Cole super chunky, the cardigan is king Cole yummy ,capuchino , the biggest crochet project I have made as it’s 30 inches long a kimono stile winter cardigan. Made all in one with 8 corners just have to sew up shoulder sleeve seam . How to start a crochet octagon cardigan is on you tube and folded it comes out like this .

Trying ribbon embroidery along with embroidery floss , I sketched this roughly with an erasable pen on to a tray cloth , excuse the fact that I can’t draw but it gives me some guide . This is my work so far

Here's a few this i have made all my own designs.

My new snuggly chair has now got its legs , I had to wait a week for them to come. I am now sorted with a tv room/craft room/bedroom. Looking out on to the conservatory and garden. The upholstery on the new snuggly chair is jungle themed.

I am so pleased I can now sit next to John instead of being on different sides of the room, that is where th lounge comes in that’s what that is for , and my snuggled chair for crafts as well.
