Koko's Small Stitches

Post by koko »

I am making quite a few smaller items as Christmas gifts this year, so figured I should just start a SAL thread and post all of them in here. Some of these I have posted in other places, I just want to have them all together in one place :)

So, here goes:

You sure have been busy haven't you and they are all gorgeous. Your stitching is so even and neat.

Love the Gold Petite one = so bright and colourful and the dolphins on the hand towel especially.

Well done Kim.

:applesauce: Those are both lovely. The fabric for the wedding announcement is so perfect for it. then I saw the date and realized this is for a future event. What a lucky bride and groom. and the towels are so pretty. That is a very clever thing to do with a bookmark pattern.

I'd never thought of using that bookmark pattern for towels, but it works really well! :)

The wedding announcement is so delicate, and the sparkly fabric is just right for it!
