CQJP and WIPs

I've added a bit of stitching to my November CQJP.


I tacked down the woven picot flower petals here

and here
beads and fiber leaves for the poinsettia center

red veins
red, then gold thread adorn this seam
green fiber rings have dark green fire-polished crystals added to the center for a wee sparkle
 my November block so far


I want to add some more to the existing seam treatments










I'm working on my RedWork Course at StitchMAP and I've created these little stitcheries from their patterns:


this bonsai is my favourite so far


That's all for this week


Hope you've all been having some stitching or tatting fun!


Thanks for visiting.


Hugs from Suz

  1. The bonsai is really pretty. It seems like it is stormy weather.
    The shell is lovely too.

  9. Hi Isabelle. I did the red first and thought it looked too bold, so I added the gold thread to tone it down. I'm glad it worked. I think I'll be adding more to this treatment......
