A couple of new smalls. These are bibs for a friend's new baby and are another stab at doing my own designs. The train has a few speciality stitches and the rocket lots of fractionals - why did i decide to do it on a diagonal :roll:

:applesauce: They are so cute. Great design and great stitching. I think the rocket looks perfect shooting off into space. And how clever your train is. Good thing the baby isn't (or is he?) Maxmilian. It would have to be a big bib.

Carole, his name is actually Maximillian, but like you say, that would need a huge bib :shock: I'm keeping fingers crossed they don't mind shortening the name to Max

Some more hardanger - this is Mabel's East in the recommended hand-dyed floss of Dinky Dyes bushfire. Just one more to go and then the first Christmas present is done :dance: Must however practise my woven twisted bars - redid them twice and still finding it hard to get them to look neat.

Tigger is adorable. The colors used are great. I was thinking of stitching a bookmark for my grandson; you have inspired me!

Couple more of Mabel's designs - West and Summer. West uses a Threadworx substitute for the DD perle but Summer is stitched in the recommended Caron Wildflowers in Jad. Completion of West also marks the first set of Christmas coasters done for my mad home made Christmas hamper plans....
