little treasures


The first new and FINISHED project of the year, a needlebook.
I needed to get back to my stitching, I have missed it so. I needed to make something small, easily finished in a few days. Yes, I have all those houses in the the Santa's Village series to stitch, but I wanted a break from them.
Then I remembered this small Pansy needlebook kit I bought from Sue Hawkins at the September fair in Exeter.


 I love the combination of colours and simple stitches in this project.








This little needlebook joints my other "little treasures", small projects, which can sometimes be more demanding and time consuming then large ones.

    Sometimes it is so nice to finish something small. It frees your mind up to go to the more complicated projects. And, oh by the way, it's terribly cute!

    Love the bright colour combination. I agree, small things can be very time consuming and fiddly-- but I love small things.

    A lovely project and you are not wrong that small can sometimes be very fiddly. Happy New Year.

    Jehelníček je krásný, líbí se mi barvy i výšivka. Unešená jsem také z toho domečku na bavlnky, to je tak roztomile vtipný nápad.
    Chci ti také, Radko, popřát v novém roce hodně pohodových dnů, spoustu času pro koníčky a také mnoho tvořivých nápadů a inspirace. A těším se, až to tady budu moci obdivovat.
