Christmas Wall or Door Hanging

Christmas Wall or Door Hanging

This is a project for those adorable Christmas sprigs! Why not add embroidery along the way?

I used a round piece of foam board for my base. Embroider the design of your choice on your fabric that will cover the base. Glue the stitched out design to the base. Add trim and sprigs. I glued another identical round foam board base on the back of the sprigs to hold it all in place. Next, glue a looped ribbon or other hanging device to the back. It’s ready be hung and enjoyed!

Baby Quiet Book

Baby Quiet Book

Although time consuming, I love making books for babies with feel appeal.  I’ve tried to come up with ways to cut back on some of the time-sucking elements like sewing the pages together and then flipping them right side out and stitching them again.  I used Extra Firm Stabilizer on these.  Felt would also work.  Applique allows lots of fun fabric to be incorporated in the book.  I love that there was an extra page at the end to add a mirror. Welcome to the world sweet Adeline!
