pillow

more pretty-fying of the girls rooms, a little embroidered pillow for H to match her quilt.

just some two inch squares and a solid border around a piece of white linen, with her name embroidered in floss, just perfect for a mini ikea poang chair!

envelope back, with a little contrast binding on the opening.

embroidery

"prettyfying" (my own word) the girls rooms continues - here is and embroidery which I finished a while ago, but only just got around to framing and hanging.


matryoshka embroideryp


it coordinates with the quilt for H which i will hopefully have finished next week


matryoshka embroidery framed


i drew my own pattern based on the matryoshkas from the quilt fabric and then used badbird's heart embroidery pattern as an inspiration for the patterns on the doll's body. Andrea's free embroidery patterns are awesome, and on my pre-christmas to do list is definitely this tree embroidery, and another prettyfy project involves these fab unicorns for S's room

First finish of 2011

My first finish of 2011 - and amazingly it's part of one of my goals for 2011!!

Pink Bunting

Bunting for Sophia's room...

Fabric covered canvases

And some fabric covered canvases - really easy to do, you just need a staple gun.

So that's the first two projects of my pretty-fy the girls rooms goal.

Also on the list is:
   new quilt for Sophia
   coordinating pillowcases
   mini unicorn canvases
   name pillows for each of the girls
   finish off Harriet's quilt (currently in the WIP pile)
   pompom  mobile
   matryoshka embroidery
  
And anything else I think of along the way.
