Grinch Glass Block & Purdue Ornament

I've been playing with my Cricut again ♥

One of my sons goes to Purdue University. The other graduated from there. When I saw these gold ornaments, I knew I wanted to make these. Boiler Up!



I ♥ the Grinch! I saw an svg file on this BLOG and thought it would look cute on a glass block.









I better get back to sewing/embroidering :)

SnOw Cute, SnOw Easy, SnOw Fast Snowman Ornaments

These were so quick to make!

I cut the faces on my Cricut.

More Cricut fun!

When I ran across these black ornaments at Hobby Lobby, I knew I needed them for something :)
These will be a gift for the girl who does my hair. She's into Twilight.

I made the lighted glass block for me! I plan on doing a few more of these. They're addicting.

SNOWMAN TREE

I ♥ Snowmen!

I got the Snowman Tree I made last year out and set up.
He lights up and is cute as can be.

He stands by my front door to greet all who enter.

Personalized Vinyled Ornaments

These are my Thanksgiving table place card/favors this year.

I cut the names & deocrative elements on my Circut out of vinyl.

2 down, 6 more to go :)

Stocking with Ruffled Cuff

I made this stocking using the 'Magic' Stocking pattern.

I created the ruffled cuff using strips cut from old tee shirts.
The strips were gathered up and sewn onto the cuff then the cuff was sewn to the stocking.

Vinyl Wall Quote

I cut this vinyl wall quote on my Circut Expression.
It's fairly large 35" h x 42"l.
I used SCAL (Sure Cuts ALot)and Aquarelle font.

This is my first vinyl wall art and I love how it turned out.

I've got plans for 2 more and some smaller crafty vinyl projects.

Holiday Aprons from Placemats

Create 3 styles of aprons from 2 or 3 quilted, scallop edged placemats that you can buy at WalMart ($3.00 each) or other dept. stores, some grosgrain ribbon and lace, if desired.

You can make a Bib Apron with Pockets, Bib Apron without Pockets or a Waist Apron with Pockets.

HAPPY HOLIDAYS from Embroidery Garden

Santa Softies ~ New!

My Santa Softies are ready!
They fit the 5x7 & 6x10 hoops. They are set up to have the embroidery machine sew on the rick rack.
I think they look adorable in the non-traditional pink fleece.
Baby blue, royal blue, dark green and a Christmasy plaid would also look great.

Use them as toys or decorations.






















I added a matching Santa Quilt Block to the set.
I added some rickrack and another border to make this little hanging pillow.

New Holiday Towel ~ Ginger Legs!

Here's another Holiday Leg towel I just finished up. The legs are removable so the towel can be washed. The machine embroidery designs and instructions are on my Yahoo Group.

If I think of any more towel ideas, I'll post them.

More Fun Holiday Towels

I used the boots from my Santa towel in the post below and this Snowman Face from a set of mine to make a fun Snowman towel.

I used my Christmas Legs 4x4 for another towel.

Santa Boots Holiday Towel

I created this cute Santa towel for the holidays.
The boots are removable, so the towel can be washed. The boots are quickly made on the embroidery machine.

The instructions and the embroidery designs for the buckle and the boots are in the Files section (Limited Time Freebies) of my Yahoo group.
