Today I am making a pincushion, among other things (as the mood takes me). Tonight I will have to do some more of my landscape. I am trying to do at least an hour each day on it this week, until our next lesson on Saturday.
My meanderings through life with my Family, my Friends, my stitching, and life in general.

More early bird Christmas goodies.
I have finished a pair of cushion covers for this month's challenge. I have used some lace that belonged to my mother, combined with pintucks, some machine embroidery stitching and piping to create them. Because I didnt have enough fabric, I have used a cream with outlined pink flowers for the back of the cushions. They are ready for putting in the box until closer to Christmas, when I will put in the cushion insert.

Beautiful work Marilyn. I had forgotten how nice pin tucks can look. Well done!
Kind Regards

These are gorgeous. I remember some cushions my Nan made with pintucks and lace inserted into them and I just loved them. Yours are so pretty. They will make a great Christmas present!
I think your cushion covers are so pretty, I'm sure whoever receives them will be extremely pleased. Congratulations on winning the lucky dip, I wonder what lovely goodies you will find in your bag.
