Oops.....

I havent finished my  stitchery for my 1 Christmas Item for May.  I am using an Anchor thread, and I have run out of the colour I was using.  I headed off to Spotlight to buy some more, found they were clearing their range of Anchor threads, but that there was none of the colour I needed.  Now I have to find another local Anchor thread stockist or start over.  Here is my stitchery so far.

April's stitchery

I am just scraping into April,  though I have had this embroidery finished for a few days.
Last month I did a bird embroidery, and now this is another one.  I have a third ready to stitch now.  I am thinking I will do a few more then make ......ummm..... something.  (table topper, runner, placemats, or something different )  I will decide when I have more of them as it depends on how many stitcheries I find to do.

January item

For my January finish,I made these 2  Christmas tablecloths. The first one will fit our  outdoor table or our dining table, so will be useful whatever the weather.

With the piece I cut off the length I made another table cloth to cover the outdoor "coffee table" which the Grandies sit at when there are a lot of us together.  I made it fitted, to hopefully prevent it being pulled, and things ending up on the floor.
  
At least the tables will be ready next Christmas.
