Here we are again, time for Work In Progress Wednesday. It includes a fresh bit of appliqué, an Italian stitch and a new project.
Velveteen Cushion
I have needle turned four pieces of appliqué in a grey cotton fabric with metallic swirly print on.
Then I stitched the edges with #149 German Braided Knot Stitch and have made small French Knots in red at the centre of each swirl. That took some time, but I am pleased with the impact.
For the last set of swirls I used an Italian favourite, #16 Puncetto Valsesiano. As you can see I have not had time to complete the work yet.
Bookmark
I need to make a birthday present.
At Hokkaido Kudasai I found this beautiful bookmark in Cross Stitch with a Ukrainian design. Thank you Pamela for the inspiration and instructions.

Beautiful additions! And good progress. Spring is here! We have lots of rain, which is a good thing.
