Nearly xmas

Good morning everyone,
It's nearly Xmas! I'm off tomorrow and I really need to make a list of what jobs I need to do , I always like to make a fuss at Xmas . Even my doggies get a xmaS dinner with Turkey they love it!
I'm at the day job today and it's freezing here , and today is charity day where we wear a Xmas jumper so I'll be nice and warm!
I hope you all have a lovely day .

Blue black work

I have been busy attempting the black work themed peice as shown above , it is a bit abstract based on a Islamic tile from the 1700 . I did the design myself as usual and I am using goat leather on it where it's green leather and then I have put silver cord around that area to hightlight it.
I am hoping that it will be an interesting peice once done.

It's freezing cold here so I am staying in to stitch ! With my doggy on my knee and a cuppa by my side....perfect!

Hair do

Good morning all,
The weather is awful here......wet,windy and cold.
And I have a hair appointment ! I do love getting my hair done as they do it lovely.But I know that as soon as I walk outside the hair will be wrecked so I think a hat is needed!

Hope you all have a lovely day.

Cushion sample

Well I've managed to finish one project for the exhibition ....just another 12 to go ..
This cushion top is based on an old Islamic tile and I have used Trampunto quilting ( which is Italian quilting ) and beading and also normal English quilting. It's lovely and tactile and I am rather pleased with it.

Work area

Good morning all, well I'm sitting here with my cuppa and deciding what to do today .... It's freezing cold so it won't involve going out! I do need to tidy my lampwork and jewellery area as I am a messy worker so I think that's my first job! And I promised hubby a cake.......
This is my messy area! It does need a tidy up doesn't it lol
