So when it comes to giving gifts I like to make things whether it textiles things or biscuits and cakes people usually get homemade gifts from me.

This was my boyfriends Christmas gift (how lucky is he I’m expecting something major btw) Schneider-Weisse is his favorite beer and he was distraught when all of our local shops stopped stocking it so I thought until he finds some more he can look at this one, he was very happy on Christmas day

This one proved a lot more difficult than I first thought the background was very layered up which just looked to harsh when stitched so in the end I’ve left it a lot plainer and more like the old wotsit packaging from a few years ago

Clare really liked it and I hope her friend does too!

Flumps will always remind me of school, when we got home on Fridays my mum would have always bought us a flump or curly wurly for when we got home and this one was just as good to make!

I’m really happy with this one I’m into stitching with my cottons lately rather than doing the whole sculpture reverse appliqued, i don’t think my favorite technique will ever be replaced though I’m too obsessed
