Weekend stitching!

I've been lucky to have a bit of free time to stitch this weekend and this is what I have achieved! The penguin kit was free with this month's Cute Cross stitch magazine and I used the home sweet home design from an old issue of Cross Stitch Crazy but changed the colours. The card is for a friend at work.

Engagement invitations

I have a good proportion of the afternoon making invitations for mine and Jack's engagement do! I bought all the stuff from hobbycraft this morning and I am really pleased with how they've turned out!

Update on wedding stitch!

I have almost finished!! Just got the back stitch on the champagne flutes to do. Working out where to place the writing has taken a long time to get right as I have changed the words from the original design.

Wedding cross stitch so far

Here is a picture of a wedding cross stitch I am doing for my friend's wedding. I have used sparkly fabric and the hearts were stitched with one strand of pearl and one strand of gold. This hasn't taken me long to do so I should finish in no time. I have included a picture of what it will look like in the end.
