Stitch Me Up Embroidery Blog
Day 5
This is my first Bog Hop and I am so excited to have all of you
view my projects. I am sending my thanks to
Madame Samm for hosting this hop and to Jane at
Jane's Fabric and Quilts for being our cheerleader.
Thanks to our sponsor Colonial Needle.
I also want to send special thank yous to our pattern designers
Debbie, Cyndi, and Madame Samm.
Now for my show and tell:
My first two projects are from
Cyndi
at Bee Tree Designs
This pillow is covered in a red and white check. The Embroidery is on a removable cover that can be changed seasonally or to suit your decorating taste or mood. I used buttons in the center of the flower to make it "pop".
These flowers made me think of spring....even though is it still pretty cold here in the Midwest for March. I wanted to use all the colors of thread in the bag so I did each flower in a different color then found a beautiful print in my stash that coordinated with the colors. I made this apron for a dear friend who volunteers her time to serve dinners at her church for families who have lost loved ones. Won't this be cheerful on her? Next week is her birthday....sssshhhhh, don't tell her!!!
Madame Samm designed the embroidery on my next two projects.
This woman just screamed 1950's to me. I have a set of tea towels my mother made when my Dad was in the service in Germany in 1951. I embroidered this towel for her birthday in two weeks. It is her era!! I used small buttons on the apron edge to embellish and give it a 3-d effect. Love that these designs were so "birthday" friendly for me to prepare for this hop.
WEE TOTS
I Love this "Wee Tot" girl. She is the centerpiece for my next baby girl quilt. I had hoped to finish this but got sidetracked on another project. I will sandwich and quilt it when I need a gift for another sweet baby girl.
So now that I have shown you my "stuff" hop on over to these blogs and see how they are showing off all these fabulous embroidery designs!!
