I've just finished a picture to hang on my granddaughters bedroom wall.    The gingham is scraps left over from her curtains.

Hope you like it



I love her posy and little boots.

Oh Lesley, that is beautiful.  She will treasure that!

[arugula]

Lovely work Lesley.

[Spana]

That is really lovely. :happy: What size is it

Her room must look so nice, that gingham is a lovely colour :happy:

[Yorkie]

How wonderful, you are so talented.

How did you do the posy?

[Aunt Sally]

I made the posy from flowers that are sold for decorating brides things favours I'd imagine.

[Aunt Sally]

That is really lovely. :happy: What size is it

Her room must look so nice, that gingham is a lovely colour :happy:

It's in a 12" embroidery hoop.


 It is a lovely room and she loves it.  The wallpaper has a delightful deer motif.  I copied it to make a cushion for her chair.

[Aunt Sally]

One of the motifs on her wallpaper. They are about 5cm tall.

I'd love to see other people's craft projects!

Very sweet lady picture.

Just last night I was online looking for circular smocked bonnet patterns. Found one free but it's a bit fussier than I'd care for but suspect munchkin will end up getting it anyway  And of course, I can't find a pic to send.

But next year, munchkin will get this one.

And the pansies here have also caught my eye. Just as well her quilt is almost finished.

[Aunt Sally]

Those are beautiful, Gloria.

I learnt to do smocking at school but I don't think I've done any since.  I've got two sons and I don't think they would have wanted a smocked dress

at the risk of sounding American, you girls are awesome! What wonderful skills you have. I can sew, but have never done any of the decorative crafts like you. lovely
