Look what I made yesterday!

I stitched this pillow kit yesterday. It's a kit by Pine Mountain designs which my husband bought for me. I also have one that says Merry Christmas (christmas pressie from Grandma last year), but I've not stitched that one yet.
I love these kits as the pillow case is already made up, so you just stitch the design on the aida, the pop in the pillow form and tie the bow to hold it together. Simples!

Charity square finished, plus a new kit started.


I started stitching 'A Dictionary Of Cakes' a few days ago. I know I shouldn't be starting any more new kits with the amount of UFO's I have, but I couldn't resist. I really enjoy stitching these designs. They're fun and the colours are so cheerful. I stitched the 'Bras' last year, and I already have 'Boots' in my stash too. I hope the cut thru designs are as fun to stitch too. They're all designed by Bothy Threads, so the instructions are really clear. The cut thru's have so much detail in them, so they might take a while to stitch.
