Busy in the Kitchen and Merry Christmas - A Christmas Freebie

Busy, busy, busy! I know many of you are hustling and bustling about the kitchen prepping for family gatherings or for just a quiet holiday meal at home, but I did want to pop in to wish you a lovely day.

If you can spare a minute, I would love to show you my latest  cross stitch finish which is simply called 
Merry Christmas

Let's get out of that hot kitchen and take a gander shall we. 




I made it into a long skinny pin pillow . I bordered the stitch with a small scrap of homespun fabric which I left unfinished on one end so you could see the frayed edges.  

The edge of the homespun is frayed.  . 

I think I am happy with it. 🤗

This pillow is stuffed with fabric scraps

 Oooh I have potatoes boiling so I better get back to the kitchen and I know you have much to do as well. Hey, if you are in the neighborhood, drop in , grab an apron and spoon! We can tackle this Thanksgiving meal together and  better yet, you can be the taste tester! Hee! Hee! 

OK Back to the Kitchen, I go! 

As Always...


Happy  Stitching and Quilting,

 y'all
