      Here are a set of cushion covers, made from fabric salvaged from hubby’s colourful work shirts.

                @Jenny namaste that is lovely. Thank you! I cut out two sets of socks from scraps of stretch/knit fabric so as to put as little of my material in the garbage/landfill. I hope the pattern works out. It was free to me so if it works, I am quite happy to share the printable pattern :)

                I plant to sew on rainy days so lucky me will be waiting until late next week :)

                  The last of my trio of whimsical cross stitching. Now ready for framing which will have to wait until our world gets back to normal. The next one will be a local scene that I'll have converted from a photo into a cross stitch chart.

                  The other two.....

                      Thank you @Jenny namaste, that's very kind. :)

                        Beautiful @Sheal .
                        I use to enjoy cross stitching , but sadly my eyesight isn't what it use to be.

                          Thank you too @Upsydaisy. :) My eye sight isn't good either and with the exception of the next project I'll be changing to tapestry, it's a bit easier to work. There are spot lights available with a magnifying glass attached but I don't know if I could work with one of those.

                            Hi @Sheal , they're really good. I love the Badger, he's got such a cheeky, playful face.

                                @Sheal Probably a stupid question ... do you fill in all the white background? Can't really tell but guess it's my eyesight! Lovely work, great subjects.
