Today is check-in day for the Smalls SAL hosted by Heather at the Stitching Lotus. and I made these little embroidered thingys .... well the same as scissor fobs really but they are to hang from the cabinet doors in the bathroom
Not very keen on the colour of the tiny seed beads but I chose them to match the bathroom curtains and they are a change from my favourite pinks.
If you would like to join the Smalls SAL and stitch a little something each month, just click on the sidebar button which will take you to Heather´s blog and all the information.
Thimble Exchange
This year I took part in the Decorative Thimble Exchange organized by Kim at Wisdom with Needle and Thread. My swap partner was Jo from Australia and this is what she sent me.
Apart from the pretty thimble from Bendigo Victoria, Jo also generously enclosed a very useful notebook and the lovely little handmade purse. Thank you Jo.
Until next week, Happy stitching.

ReplyDeleteAnd your stitchery is stunning! Funny how you said you wanted to use a different colour for a change...I am exactly the same and have to try very hard to move away from pink once in a while! :)
Hugs to you and much dear love!

Love your thimble collection! Nice stitching, too.
ReplyDeleteSo lovely what you created for your bathroom cabinet doors. They look gorgeous hanging there. And such a neat idea to take two beads from a necklace to embellish them.
ReplyDeleteYou have such a great thimble collection. And this exchange must have been perfect for you.
I love your little cabinet ornaments. The stitching is beautiful. What a great idea to use beads from a necklace.
ReplyDeleteYour ornaments are so lovely, at present I'm running on one foot around the house to find a place where I could hang something like that maybe in hardanger stitching. So sophisticated!
