Stockings stockings stockings

Ok so things have been really crazy, I haven't stopped stitching like a mad woman for months now! I have so much to blog and if I'm ever going to get through it all I'll have to group things together. These are some stockings I've made over the last week or so. There are more to come!

Draft stoppers and things!

Finally I'm getting moving and blogging a few orders sent recently. I made these draft stoppers (paraspifferi) for an Italian customer. Her sister has a really long window 1,90mt so she asked for a draft stopper to go along the window. It's near her couch which has some cushion I made so I made the draft stoppers to co-ordinate. We decided it was best to make them in 3 pieces which can be tied together. I used beautiful antique linen with appliqued fabrics and antique trims. Then I finished them off with a little French inspired embroidery.

For the same client I also made this fabric tree. She is going to organise a base for it. I was very pleased with how it turned and may have to study it for next year!
