Wool Applique Table Topper

This is my first attempt at Wool Applique. I really enjoyed the button hole stitch especially after I remembered how to do it. The little pieces of wool were difficult to attach. I will stick to easier pieces for awhile until I get more confident.

Crazy Quilt Pillow

I loved creating this Crazy Quilt Pillow for my daughter. The two different kinds of green material and the pink roses were from my daughter's Christmas dress when she was 3 years old. (She is 24) I loved that dress and knew I was saving it for something special. It is one of her Christmas presents this year.
I haven't done any embroidery for 27 years and found I really enjoyed it.
