Greetings! Advent
Season is here! The first candle of Hope has been lit. And Christmas will be here before we know it… I try to savor
the joyous anticipation, but the stress and hurriedness tend to creep in on
me. I’m very excited about this month’s
offerings, so here they are!
All of this month’s offerings are based on a
single sweet design by The Prairie Schooler.
First is “Bringing Home the Tree”
Thread Board. This piece is both lovely to display and useful. I added amber mother
of pearl rings for holding threads on one side.
On the back I included a red
plaid wool pocket for embroidery scissors (not included) and a black ribbon tie
to keep them safe and secure. There is also a plaid wool tree needle and pin
keep. The front is complimented by a Christmas calico and three embroidered
Christmas Trees on the seam. It has a base of thin mat board, so that it is
stiff and can be propped up on a shelf or table. It measures approximately 4.5
inches by 6 inches (not including the rings) and is completely handsewn.
“Bringing
Home the Tree” Thread Board is sold.
Thank you ever so much!
I’ve
continued making pinch pockets this month as well – from the same design as the
thread board. These pinch pockets are perfect for a small spool of thread, a
small pair of embroidery scissors, and even a few other notions.
Each measures
approximately 4 inches across and 3 inches tall. Items are stored safely inside
until you gently press the two corners together to open. The pinch pocket is
backed with the same Christmas calico as is featured on the thread board and is
lined with the same army green wool.
As with all of my offerings, they are completely handsewn.
Please specify
barn, family or truck.
~*All pinch pockets are sold. Thank you ever so much!*~
I am still planning on having two more giveaways
before the end of the year on my blog (although time slipped away in November) – so visit often J
Blessings, Patti
All are very cute.
