S4 E81: Christa Watson, Christa Quilts
Chit Chat with Stephanie
Completed Projects:
I made a pair of pajama pants for my hubby’s Valentine’s Day gift. The pattern is free from 5 out of 4 Patterns
I completed the Tendrils Pot from the Modern Crewel Embroidery book by Jo Avery. The hand embroidery took about 4 evenings and sewing everything together took about 30-45 mins. I used a mix of embroidery threads: wool crewel thread, Sajou embroidery floss, DMC floss and perle cotton thread. My Amazon affiliate link to the book and the printable Stitch and Stick paper are below.
The final small project I made is a fabric book from a pre printed fabric panel. This one is for my 2 yr old nephew, Ian. This project only requires batting, and sews up super quick. The longest part of the project is cutting out the book pages.
