Snowman and Santa

The snowman above was drawn on my tablet, the Santa below was based on a little knitted Santa I made years ago.


I've been painting dolls house furniture and making bedding for them.
Wishing everyone a very Happy Christmas or holiday.

Trees, Drawn and Embroidered


above - the background and 'white' trees were done on a gelli plate, the other tree was drawn on my android tablet.





We had a get together with my arty friends to make Christmas decorations using embroidery. I seem to have Christmas trees on my mind. It is still WIP as I'm not sure how I want to finish it yet. The two ideas I have is to cut close to the outer edge of the sewing and back it with fabric or get a little oval embroidery frame to hang it in.

And this is a section of my tree in the living room.
