Hanging Ornament Blackwork finish

I finished a blackwork piece for Theresa a few weeks back. She wanted it made into a door hanger. I really like how it turned out. I just went very simple on her piece so the colors would pop. I used a smokey black fabric on back with cording i made with good ole DMC 310 and just a couple little irrediscent (sp) beads around the edges. Theresa says she really likes it!!!

Finishes for Toni

As you can see I have been plenty busy lately, that's a good thing (keeps me out of trouble). LOL Toni had sent me 4 pieces that she stitched to finish for her. I did 3 hanging ornaments and 1 Flat Fold for her. I just love playing in the fabrics trying to find the right one along with the trimming, etc. Have fun looking.

Finishes for Michele & Kathy

Here are a couple Halloween finishes that i did for Michele recently.

Wicked by PrimitiveBettys, which is a freebie on her site. And Halloween by La D Da that Michele stitched as well. I finished the Wicked pillow by handsewing it then just doing some criss crosses around it for a "prim" look. I DON'T sew but this was a simpler one to do. LOL And the Halloween one is a pillow stitched together with the whip stitch (biscournu style finish) and filled with poly pellets.


Also, here is a small finish I did for a lady at one of my LNS's. This was her very first "needlepoint canvas" pieces she ever did (years ago) and i made it into an ornament for her. This was also my first canvas piece to finish.

New finishes

Hi! Here are a few more finishes.

First off I have 2 more finishes for Michele. One is the quaker flamingo she stitched and I finished it into a Hanging Pinkeep for her. And then the fair & square pieces she rec'd from Veronica. I made these into a heart shape pinkeep.




Next I have 3 finishes for Eileen. I have Smell My Feet she stitched into a no sew cube. A Merry Autumn by JBW designs into a pinkeep ornament and a santa piece she stitched into an ornament for her. I tried to steal the Autumn piece, i really like how this one turned out, but I still mailed it to her. LOL

A couple customer finishes

Hi! I have had my first customer finishes here recently for Michele. Michele is keeping me busy. LOL Actually when Michele came to visit in April she brought a bunch of her finishes for me to finish for her and recently sent a few more. Thanks hun! I have had a blast finishing these for her.

Here they are in no particular order:

Just a couple notes, for biscournus and pin pillows (bean bag pillows) I use poly pellets to fill it. I really like the weight that poly pellets give to the pieces and they are quite easy to work with. For pinkeeps, ornaments I do hand sew the 2 pieces together with a ladder stitch. I also do sometimes glue the ribbon on, if you do not want glue that is perfectly fine. If I use cording I sometimes handstitch that on as well as it stays in place alot better than glue. And no sew cubes are used with glue and pins. I use Alene's glue and you cannot see it, it dries clear and I am very careful about using just enough so it will not show.

Thanks and I look forward to finishing your stitched treasures for you.
