X-STITCH XMAS DESIGNS






My biggest past time (when not veggie growing) is x-stitching. I generally do big pictures, but this year I have decided to do some smaller ones in between the bigger projects ... these are the first few -which should be made into cards -but the stocking and tree are on fabric that is about 7.5"x6.5" s0 I'm thinking of turning them into small scented cushions for folks to hang on door handles etc. There are 4 more in the set -a snowman, reindeer, bauble and mittens and hat. They have lots of metallic threads in and I reckon there are enough left over from each kit to make a second one ;-)...
The smaller pictures Im thinking of backing with some xmassy coloured fabric and putting a layer of wadding in the middle to make xmas decorations.
