Christmas Bubbles

It turns gorgeous! Azure Tit Christmas bubble cross-stitched on a plastic canvas. I haven’t decided yet how to finish it, maybe I stitch the second bubble with another bird and then unit them together. For the present, the first bird without and with the backstitch is ready!

Shipping Time

On Monday, I sent the large order consisting of three Christmas Stars garlands to Bellmawr, NJ, USA. I hope the buyer will be pleased with her purchase and that her Christmas tree will look beautiful. I added some crocheted snowflakes to this purchase as a gift, and I hope they will match. I had to buy a bigger box because my permanent packaging didn’t fit three buntings.

In a completely different way I packed the choker, which I shipped the same day to Lake Orion, MI, USA. It was bought for the first time, so I’m looking forward to the customer’s opinion on this product.

Christmas Tree Buntings

Usually, when I get an idea for a new garland, many orders appear in the shop, and I can’t finish the work I started. That was the case this time too. I started making Christmas tree garlands and received a big custom order for a multi-coloured Christmas Stars garland. But by the end of the week, I plan to finish this order and send three Stars buntings to my customer. By the way, the history behind new garlands is also intriguing. I have several items at home that I purchased with the idea that they will come in handy one day. That’s how I bought these colourful buttons, which had been lying idle for years. Suddenly I had the idea to crochet a Christmas tree garland and decorate each Christmas tree with these buttons. Which buttons do you like better: the larger or smaller with polka dot ones? I promise to have these two buntings in the shop by this weekend.

New Pattern in Progress

New cross stitch Christmas tree ornaments Icicles in progress. They are like old-world Christmas decorations or festive Christmas decor. There will be not only a cross stitch pattern but detailed assembly instruction too. I am wondering whether to stitch them on Aida or plastic canvas?

Christmas Decorations

After completed my biggest and most difficult stitching, I decided to finish some of the projects, I’ve started and put in a drawer, and it turned out, that I have a lot of them. So, the first I’ve finished today is Christmas hanging decor from Orchidea Kit. This Kit contains plastic canvas, presorted MC thread, white-black chart and a needle. Two pictures from this Kit were completed earlier and they are in Newcastle, with my daughter. The last two will be here, in Warsaw, with me. So, I’d like to present you pictures of the Kit itself, the process and completed decoration:

This Decoration is 12 cm x 8,5 cm / 4,7 in x 3,1 in and can be used as a Christmas Tree or wall hanging decoration, as a bookmark, even for a Christmas card making or as Christmas Gift Tag, and in many other ways, I believe.

Snowflakes

We got up this morning and it turned out to be autumn. Outside the window, there was a cloudy sky, rain and a temperature of 17ะก. I’m not complaining about this weather, because I can’t stand the heat, which has been attacking us lately, but still autumn always comes so unexpectedly … ๐ŸŽ‹๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿ‚๐ŸHowever, there is another moment – you have to start preparing for Christmas, so today in our shop appear snowflakes. Crocheted of 100% cotton they are beautiful decorations for a Christmas tree. Snowflakes are stiffened and can decorate a fireplace or be an addition to gifts also. In general, how to use them is a matter of your imagination. For me, knitting snowflakes always means the end of summer and the approaching winter.โ„๏ธโ˜ƒ๏ธโ„๏ธ
