Well Hello again on this blogspot .

I've not disappeared because I'm not allowed to stop making stuff, er as commanded by the Craft Muse who lives in the spare bedroom.

She never left, so I never left.

However, I still doing her bidding by doing a lot of machine embroidery.

The Craft Muse calls machine embroidery painting with thread.  And so do I. 

Here are a few of the things that I've been painting er stitching out lately.

They are Coasters.  

They are fun to make and I even have fun creating some of them .  Yeah, that is when I was whapped with the wand from the Craft Muse.  It was only a small whap because she is small.  

She said it was to to prod me into doing a post after all these years being AWOL

Below are just a few pictures of the coasters and mug rugs that I made this year.

To see more here's a link to my Pinterest with pictures of my mug rugs and coasters.

DIY Machine Embroidery Ornaments

It's been a busy month since I last posted. 

The Craft Muse (who lives in the spare bedroom aka the craft hoarding room) asked me about what I was going to do for this year's Christmas decorations.

What ??? She wanted to know about Christmas stuff in ...AUGUST!!!

Are you kidding me?

Well, the Craft Muse was NOT kidding .

She said it was time for action and bopped me with her wand to get her point across .

She reminded me that  I finally got around to "doing Christmas stuff " on Christmas Eve last year.

Geesh, she has a memory like an fairy and this is better than an elephant, hands down!!

So I got the point and started "doing Christmas stuff" in August and September. 

And guess what ?
No, YOU guess..
I finished up a bunch of DIY Machine Embroidered Ornaments.

The Craft Muse was delighted. But now she is asking about .........HALLOWEEN.
UH OH.... 

See  the Ornaments  below.  

A Little Busy Bagging it

Well Hello there craft blog, I've haven't been here posting for a while.

It's good to be back from...????

Well, the Craft Muse (who lives in the spare bedroom aka the craft hoarding room) and I were away on an adventure.

A little, very little adventure to be exact.

We got to visit a very small museum of magic and learned a little about magic stuff.

Learned little, very little to be exact.

Any whooo, the Craft Muse decided that little is a big deal.

She asked me to make some little bags for her big deals. (don't ask me what this all about, cause I trying to stay out of trouble).

I made some little bags for her using my embroidery machine.

Below is a little bit of what I made for her.   Still don't know what the big deal is about these little bags, except that they are cute.

 
 
And while she was a little busy doing some magic stuff, I was a little busy sewing these book covers. 

AND....I'll be back posting again after a little break.
