I adapted a cross stitch design from “De fil en aiguille” Hors-Serie, Campagne to make this cushion. I loved the designs of the cups and bowls. The embroidered panel was set into a purchased cushion cover.
designed by Gail Lawther, stitched during lockdown 2, November 2020
I stitched these coasters whilst on board P&O Arcadia during the second half of the world cruise. The itinerary was drastically changed due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The craft group met daily during the 31 sea days from Fremantle, Australia, to Southampton.
Birds made from hand made felt. I made the felt on a textile course at Quarry Bank Mill, which is a National Trust property at Styal, Cheshire. The birds were decorated with beads and embroidery. size about 10cm The tail feathers were decorated with glass beads and embroidery.
Stitched during the sea days during the 2020 Round the World cruise.The itinerary was changed drastically due to The Coronavirus pandemic so the scheduled visit to the Great Barrier Reef didn’t happen but, Jan, the craft tutor had already planned the activity. Each sea day she taught us new stitches to add to the embroidery.
