Jennifer

It's been lovely this week, to have a clear brain and to be able to enjoy what I'm doing and to be thinking of new projects.

I have almost finished the next cross stitch hearts,  but am waiting for delivery or one thread to be able to complete it.  Typically, the thread I ran out of, wasn't the one I had pre-ordered before the holidays.  Never mind, it should be here in the next couple of days.

While I was waiting for it to arrive, I found this stitchery, Jennifer.  I made a couple of changes to the colours as I used what threads I had here.

Later in the month, they will be releasing on the site how they used the stitchery.  I am going to wait and see what they do, but I have an idea of my own, if I don't like it.  First though, she needs a bit of attention.  At the moment she is a little creased, and she needs to have the transfer lines washed out.

Yesterday, after a month of neglect, the sewing machine saw the light of day and had a gentle workout.  Once we get some light here, I'll take a photo and you can see the result.

Jennifer looks like she'll be very pretty! I need to get by sewing machine back out of the garage. I had a lovely book called SEW by Cath Kidson for Christmas.... lots of bags etc for me to have a go at !
