Rachel, Ten Hour Stitcher, is the super host of Fully Finished Objects which is a great opportunity to show and tell about our crafty items that are completely finished.
I have three Santas finished, they will probably be my last ones for the tree. I do have some felt Santas that I made for our children to hang at Christmas many years ago so they will also be on the tree.
My other FFO object is very special. It was our daughter and son-in-law's first wedding anniversary at the end of August, their first year has really flown by.
As a 1st Anniversary is paper I decided to have a go at embroidering a photo. I have seen this on Instagram but have never tried it. It was so tricky as the back is just white so you gave no real idea where the needle is coming up and if too close to a previous hole the photo could tear.
I was so pleased with how it turned out, the roses and tiny flowers were a joy to build up. I really enjoyed this, from matching the colours to building up the stitches. I'm pleased to say Mr and Mrs Lang liked it too.
I haven't stitched much for a few months but I have spent time sorting my stash and sewing bits out, I now have quite a few projects to work on.
