Fully Finished Gallery - February


I have been stitching old cover kits to make cards to sell at our Scout Group events. I've had these kits for many years and I no longer have the charts so I'm stitching from the picture haha.





I'm going to get some stickers saying 'Best Wishes' 'Happy Birthday' 'Just for You' and put them in the card packs so whoever buys them can choose which they put on.

I have also made up the penguin card from the kit Justine sent me and I used for this month's Let the People Choose post.


The Fully Finished Gallery is hosted by Rachel at Ten Hour Stitcher and encourages usto finish our projects instead of them sitting in a box.

Thank you Rachel for hosting this, I'm new to these postings but it's great fun to not only put up my finishes but to see everyone else's work, and I know these cards for have been stitched and put to one side before.

Nice work on the cards. It's a good idea to leave them blank but include stickers so people can choose what they should say.

Such cute cards! I have stacks of these to be stitched, most with the charts, but some I'll have to use your technique.

All of them are beautiful but I just LOVE that penguin. Adorable!

All of your cards are adorable Clare. Love how you used your stitches and your card making ability together. Thinking about you. RJ

Thank you for taking part again this month. You've stitched up some really cute cards; it's hard to believe you did some of them from just the pictures. I hope they sell well at the Scout event. :)

Great stitching, without the chart too :-) I'm sure these will be snapped up, love the penguin and the little
Strawberry Shortcake one :-)

Well, you are doing a great job of stitching from just the pictures! They have come up a treat.

Oh, that's so thoughtful, and I'm very impressed you can stitch them from a photo. I've tried and not succeeded in the past.

What adorable little cards you are stitching! I wish I could attend your sale, I would grab these up in a heartbeat! Good luck with the sale, and congratulations on all your finishes!

I love the penguin! Such a clever idea to include stickers and keep the cards blank - keeps them very flexible for people x

Those cover kits are really cute! What a good way to "use them up!"
