Finishing Freebie from Blackbird Designs

I finished the cross stitch a few weeks ago but finally completed the finishing today. I added a trim with beads to the bottom and black silk cording around the whole pinkeep. The back has a black upholstery sample with green and pink dots. This freebie chart from Blackbird Designs can be found at the following address:

It was a quick finish and came out very Ooh-La-La!

Merry Christmas Card Holder - Recent Finish

This Christmas card holder was a quick finish using fusible applique techniques. I then did a small satin stitch around the edges. You can find this design in Nancy Halvorsen's book "I Believe". Check out her designs at http://www.arttoheart.com/
