Plushies Softies Stitching & Doodling

Had quite a varied week craftwise, with it being school holiday week I had more time to 'play' without feeling guilty. I got back into my stitching, though I wanted to do some machine sewing but it's not working properly (aghh scream)......I took it to bits and cleaned and oiled it but it still won't go.....hmm. My Mum and Dad got it for me when I was 18 so it is now 21 years old. My husband said why don't I treat myself to a new one for Christmas, I think I would but my lovely (not working) machine has so much sentimental value. I Managed to make a mini patchwork cushion while muttering under my breath though!





















Then went onto hand stitching and I made a little monster plushie/softie and personalised it on the back.































I made a white and gold Christmas Heart felt decoration which I embroidered and beaded.





















Wednesday the girls went to their Grandmas and it was a lovely sunny morning which I spent in the conservatory just doodling and colouring.






















I finished the stocking on my advent calendar crossstitch and made a start on an Angel.
