Pokemon 20 personal project

Hey Guys,

I know I've been quiet recently but I haven't had much time due to me starting the biggest project of my life. I am attempting to stitch all 151 original pokemon using a pattern I found a couple of years ago.
I have decided to do it now due to it being pokemons 20th anniversary. Here is a picture of the work in progress (I've barely started).

I will be back working on shop items soon as I will want breaks from this large project and knowing me i'll be lucky if its done for pokemons 30th anniversay.

See you soon,
Georgina

3-in-1 - 2 Flower hearts and an Owl, hoop designs

Hi Guys,

Sorry it's been a while, been busy with new designs got three up today. Two based on flower heart blackwork and one of an owl with blackwork patterns instea of block colour.

The two flower hoops are very sweet with a complex or simple design both are effective with the shape clearly noticeable. I did these in red due to it coming up to Valentine's Day.
I am enjoying making these blackwork hoops as they are quick and simple to create.

The Owl design is my favourite design though as he is so cute and I believe using the colours in these patterns instead of block is more creative and effective because it gives the owl a texture as well as colour. I chose purple and pink purely because they are mine and my sisters favourite colours.

Well that's all for now. More baby sets soon.
See you soon,

Hanging Hoop - Love is all you need

Hi guys,

My first Valentine's Day inspired hoop. This hoop is based on the Black stitch style of embroidery which I believe looks great in these hanging hoops.

I will have more hoops up in the near future. Would love to hear what you would like to see in future hoops. My next one is going to be flowers and flowers and more flowers! Feeling really girly at the moment with sweet loved up pattern ideas.

See you soon,
Georgina

Hanging Hoop - Home Sweet Home

Hi Guys,

Just letting you all know about the first addition to the shop for 2016. It is a sweet little hanging hoop great for gifting to someone who has just moved into a new home to add a bit of a personal touch.
I made this in pink and purple as I think this design suits these colours but will customise it for customers if they request it.

This is made using a wooden 4 inch hoop and is a great little gift for anyone who takes pride in their home. I think I will gift this one to one of my friends who is looking to buy their first home. It comes with bakers twine attached to make it easier to hang from most surfaces. This wasn't mentioned in the new year post as I was unsure if it was going to go up on the dhop but decided it was a good idea.

See you soon,
Georgina

Happy new year!

Hi guys,

I know it's a bit late but happy new year hope you all have a great 2016! My New Years resolution is to stitch more especially more for myself as I didn't have time to make anything for myself last year. I'd love to hear what your New Years resolution was?

I thought I'd let you all know what's happening in the new year. I have purchased a badge machine to start making personalised cross stitch badges.

Also I have 3 new baby set patterns in the works as well as at least 2 new children's t-shirts.

I am also thinking about starting to do coasters, fridge magnets and keyrings but they won't be happening until further down the line (hopefully up by March).

Other than that business as usual the same January promises as every year, lose weight, be more active and don't leave anything until the last minute but seriously I know it's not going to happen.

See you soon,

Personalised Baby set - Lion

Hi Guys,

Today I thought I'd show you my final set that I have been doing. This one is for a mum to be who has already chosen the baby's name. I think the picture of the lion complemented the name Leo perfectly as Leo reminds me of the star sign which is represented by a lion.

This set has a small amount of colours so was quickly completed. I love the way this set is so cute with the cartoon lion. I may make this a baby set in the future for the etsy page.

See you soon,

Christmas Tags

Hi Guys,

Another project I have worked on is for myself. Some initial Christmas tags to add some personalisation to my friends presents. I am really happy at how these turned out.

The tags came from kit in a cross stitch magazine I purchased and thought they would be a great personal touch to my Christmas as I haven't had time to make personal gifts this year. Next year Christmas starts in January. 

See you soon,
Georgina
