I made this Victorian Heart Pincushion as a challenge project with the Yahoo Stitchmap Group (see link on sidebar). Since I don't know anyone that sews I get to keep it as my own Christmas present.
Potholders for my DD and SIL who are avid mushroom hunters.
These are kind of pasta or Italian themed. They will go to some of the many family members I try to give a hotpad every year. Inside is Insulbrite and terrycloth so they are thick.
Peace, baby! Groovy potholders for some of those 70s love children! (Where are my bellbottoms when I need them).
Yummm...chocolate.
The chocolate hotpads will go into kitchen sets for some lucky gift recipients. The chocolate embroidery transfers are enbroidered (by me) on flour sack dishcloths and I crocheted a dishcloth to complete the set.
A couple more crocheted dishcloths on a pile of hotpads waiting for embroidered dishrags (er, I mean dishcloths) to complete a set.
And, finally, I think this is the last of the pillowcases I think I need to make for gifts. These go with the "Fruit Basket Upset" quilt I made for my oldest son for Christmas.
You have been a busy girl! All your items are really nice.....don't you just love those pin cushions, I have made myself lots of them over the years....
ReplyDeleteI love, love, love your hotpads! I may have to copy your idea for Christmas. I do the pillowcases, too, but yours are super cute!! Way to go! Hugs, Cathy
