It's that hustle-bustle time again. There are so many things I want to do! And make. I think I'm almost ready to pick up my needle and thread again. In the meantime, I have found a wonderful little embroidered piece that I was working on a few years back. And since I am running a bit behind on some things around here I thought this would make a fun Bonus pattern for December. So, with a little tweaking, I have combined two stitcheries into one and added a few more characters to round out the theme. The entire sheet can be stitched as a picture, divided into segments, or the motifs can be used individually for decorating holiday linens, napkins, aprons, clothing or whatever tickles your fancy. This is just a preview of some of them.
In addition to the Bonus transfer, the afore mentioned Honeycomb pattern is ready for prime-time now too and will be added come December, along with many more vintage surprises. I have been very busy here! Look for them in the New Additions section of the PatternBee website.
Focusing back on the project at hand, I am thinking about turning these two stitcheries into companion seasonal pillow sleeves. You know, this idea. And over here another one, which also includes where to find that fantastic pattern to make them! (I know, a shameless plug.)
Until next time, be well Stitching Friends!
So cute! And I love the fox. They are very trendy right now, I see. Hope your hand is healing!

I'm glad to know your hand is mending and you will soon be stitching again. I'm looking forward to seeing those pillow sleeves. Happy stitching.

Pillow Sleeves! Oh my goodness, I have not seen these before. I dare say you have started something now--my mind is a whirl right now with the possibilities. What a GREAT gift it would make to give someone a pillow and sleeves for the seasons! I have to go get busy.
