Just for Fun!!!!!!!


Just for a bit of fun I decided to embroider on Toilet Paper . It is a wonderful for a gift for someone who has everything or just for a bit of a joke.   The the embroidery design came from Goodies by Gail.   She has lots of designs there for all different occasions.   Also  a fantastic idea for a First Wedding Anniversary which is Paper.

40th Birthday Towel

 Another towel for a 40th Birthday present.  Not sure where this design came from but it stitched out beautifully and my friend was really happy with it.

 While visiting my daughter for Christmas I noticed that she had hung the wall hangings that I had made many years ago.  I would have made two of each, as I always give the same to my son.  I had forgotten all about them.  That is the reason that I keep my Blog so I can keep track of the things that I have made over the years.   I look back on the year and think I haven't made much  but when I look through my Blog I see all the things that I have made and feel quite proud of my achievements.

Christmas Decorations along the Road !!!!!!





 We decided to visit my Daughter who lives up in the North of Australia in a small town of Bowen for Christmas. We took the inland route instead of the coastal road as there would be less traffic.  Along the way I noticed that some of the farmers had been putting decorations on the road that leads into their farms. This was a lovely idea and it also gives the kids something to look for when they get bored..  I only managed to snap a few and there were lots more that I missed.  Not quick enough on the camera. My favourite was the Santa just sitting in the paddock. .   By the time I saw the display and I aimed the camera, we had passed.  I was happy that I managed to get some..   Awesome idea.  Well done to everyone that took the time to put up a few decorations for Christmas.

Mug Rugs!!!!!!!

The main reason that I bought my Singer Embroidery Machine was that I wanted to make bigger In The Hoop designs.  Here are 2 Mug Rugs that are from Sweet Pea Designs.  Love her designs.  Again my Singer Machine is doing the right thing and stitching beautifully.  I think that I am going to enjoy my Singer Machine a lot more now.
