I've finished the embroidery for my christmas cushions. If you look back at a previous post of mine
here I showed the drawings that I was going to copy (using a transfer pencil) and then embroider. The idea being that I will sew them into little cushions for the kids for christmas gifts. I also decided I wanted one for myself. So I have chosen a recent drawing that Lucy did of our family and embroidered it also.

The embroidery I did of Olivers drawing
This is the original drawing

So the next step is to make them into little miniature cushions and wrap them ready for christmas.
I will post pics when they are done.

They are going to be unbelieveably gorgeous, beautiful handiwork!
These are fantastic! I love the way you have 'coloured in' the clothing! I might have to try that.
I wish I could say I have completed some of my handmade presents!
Oh Hi, nice to 'meet' you, so nice to stumble across your blog! You are a clever little cookie, and your blog looks fab.

I love these. I did something very similar on a shirt for my son after my daughter draw a picture of him. It is so precious. Great idea.
