Well, it seems I have failed to get my new snowflake pattern ready in time! I have a draft version ready but not a properly complete pattern yet. Would anyone like to test it in its current form? It's version 5 from this blogpost that I wrote up in the end, or so far should I say as I might write up other versions as well.
In the meantime, my daughters came to visit last week and we had a craft day and embroidered felt ornaments. I found an online shop that sells 100% wool felt which is very nice to work with (and I like that it's natural fibres). I enjoy making a beaded blanket stitch around the edges, it makes the ornaments sparkle when on the tree.
So here are some of the ornaments we made:
Mushrooms are popular in our family!
We have several other mushroom ornaments on our tree.
I hope all your Christmas preparations are going well and that you are able to also relax and enjoy this festive season. I'm off to write more cards!
Best wishes,
Frivole
