WIPW - Vaxholmskudden Constructed and Completed

What's on the menu for Work In Progress Wednesday this week?

Crazy for Crazy
I just added a few basic seam lines which I will add beads or other stitches to later.






Baby Rubik's Cube
Many readers have been fascinated by this soft toy and I have now made a tutorial of sorts for it. 
Click on BABY BLOCKS TUTORIAL tag at the top of this blog, to see, and hopefully give it a try. Be prepared to work slowly and carefully. It IS tricky!


Vaxholmskudden
I have worked hard to finish this wool embroidery project, based on Karin Derland's style.
After completing the embroidery, I have constructed the cushion, added the back which has a zip, and made the inner cushion.
Vaxholmskudden is now ready to be wrapped in tissue paper and fancy gift wrapping, and fly off to Vaxholm, a charming town in Stockholm Archipelago.

The cushion is stunning, and it compliments the one in the background perfectly. I wouldn't want to give it away!
