Cuddly Buddly Design Team
It's almost time for September's Design Team Challenge over at Cuddly Buddly and I suddenly realised that I hadn't even blogged August's! Summer always seems to push blogging into the background as I would much rather be outside in the fresh air than sat inside in front of a computer screen.
Anyway, the theme was 'Thank you' and I stitched up a little appliqued 'Thanks for the Memories' hanging linen heart. The weather has now taken a turn for the worst and it feels almost autumnal, so I would happily indulge myself with dreaming of British summers spent in a cute little caravan! I based the applique on this digital stamp which costs just 99p from the Cuddly Buddly store.
It was a quick project to stitch up and I used the same basic pattern as I created for this owl hanging heart which you can read about here.
I'm also intending to stitch up some Christmas versions, as I love to see decorations created in classic linen hanging from the tree!
In the meantime there's a full tutorial over at Cuddly Buddly, with easy step-by-step photos, so you can get stitching one of your own.
Enjoy!
Oh Josie ,

ReplyDeleteI love the mini caravan ornament! We travel in one of these (24-foot RV: recreational vehicle) when we're on the US mainland raising missionary funds. Yours-- AS ALWAYS-- is adorable. The tutorial feature looks SEW easy, too. Oh, for more time at my machine...
ReplyDeleteHugs and happy caravan-ing,
Kelley~
Two really adorable projects, love the caravan!
ReplyDeleteThese are super Josie and I can't wait to be inspired by your Christmas decs. I've had my first go at free machine stitching a digi image and I have to say, the results weren't as perfect as yours! Lol! xx
ReplyDeleteReally love these! Think your right about linen on a Christmas tree, kinda comforting and cosy. Love the designs you've used! Xx
ReplyDeleteAww they're gorgeous! Great idea to make some Christmassy versions, i can't wait to see them! x
ReplyDeleteLinen tree decorations sound lovely. I love the little frill of lace too.
ReplyDeleteLovely designs. So cheerful :)
ReplyDeleteThe owl is gorgeous but the caravan is my fave! I've got a few miniature cushioned hearts around my house and they really do make the place a lot more cheerful!
ReplyDeleteThe linen background fabric is perfect and I love the little caravan.
ReplyDeleteYour hearts are gorgeous. The caravan one is really cute. You're right they would look wonderful on a Christmas tree.
