MADE it... {03}




This week, machine embroidery applique, freehand styles.

The backing fabric is (was) a woolen blanket, the applique is felt.

Pretty, and FUN.  I soo enjoyed making these cute....










Cushions!





These were made for Christmas presents, one for my sister and one for me.  I liked them so much, I had to keep one.



And one for my sister's husband too :)

  1. They look great - freehand stitching is something I'm keen to have a go at :)

    1. Go for it! It can be a little easier if you start with a small project, like a table-runner (made like a quilt) or even smaller, then you can use an embroidery hoop to hold the fabric taut.

      Go on :)
