Christmas Crafting

I've been crafting up a storm lately. I love this fabric *cough* sheet *cough*, and copied a motif off it to embroider on an apron for Michael's Mum.




I've also been making stacks of cards with my photos on the front. Any excuse to use my 'spinning a yarn' stamp which has been sadly languishing lately!

  1. Oh ho! There you are! Nice new digs there (and nice stamp, too- is there a history to it?)

  2. Hi there! Welcome to blogger! That is a great idea to trace a motif off the vintage sheet. I have a skirt with some great embroidery on it that I've been thinking of tracing.
    And those cards are wonderful! I really like the series of strawberry jam photos.

  3. Welcome to blogger! The stamp is such a lovely touch. Details are what really lift something into the special realm.

  4. Welcome to blogger! Apparently the 2 of us live in a small science/craft/new zealand world? I love your embroidery. Old sheets have some great prints! My grandma's basement is full of them too! Someday I may learn to embroider... It's so hard to find the time to even spin these days! All the knitting that needs to be done!
