First of all there's the 'Merry Christmas' rose pillow (now in my Folksy store).
Next there is this hanging decoration with the image of two child angels (from a vintage Christmas card) and decorated with embroidery and lace (also listed in my Folksy store).
I finished the scrapbook cum journal page with a few bits of lace, labels and crystals.
I've done one small piece of redwork, which became part of this double-page spread in my scrapbook cum journal.
I've had my tracing paper and transfer pencil out and have traced a couple of Christmas redwork pieces. This one is finished, and will become a lavender pillow.
I'll be doing this design next.
I'm also working on a second child angels decoration, though this time, with pink.
These will be turned into Christmas tree decorations.
As a break from Christmas stuff (though I have loads of ideas in my head!) I'm also hoping to make a couple of needle cases (similar to the ones I showed you the pictures of last week) and start on the design for a wedding ring pillow for a Creative Connections monthly challenge (I'll tell you more about that another time).
I hope you all have a creative week.

I love that little Christmas cushion! The redwork looks lovely, too. Ali's right, Pinterest can be totally addictive.
ReplyDeleteWow - you are so ahead of yourself (or very organised). I like the lavender pillow. The message is lovely.

Wow, you have been busy! What fabulous makes! Simmi xx
ReplyDeleteGosh you certainly have had a busy week. Look forward to seeing the next lot of redwork xx
ReplyDeleteHa - as everyone else agrees, you really have had a productive week! :D I love project / scrap books and portfolios, it's a little extra work to keep on top of it isn't it, but always worth it - yours is a work of art in its own right! I've been trying out blackwork recently - hadn't seen redwork before but you're right it's perfect for Christmas! I bet the orders will be coming in thick and fast in no time at all! (Especially since fb would suggest that Asda has already got a Christmas aisle...!!!!)
