Quilted Mum Cushion

Well, this is my second Christmas present sorted - a nice quilted cushion for my mum :-) , that's the 2 mum's started...

Also I have loads of material left so am sure I can think of a few different projects to use that up!

This cushion has been hand sewn and hand quilted including the embroidery on the felt "MUM" letters.

Ladder Stitch Knitted Scarf

It starts...

The first of my homemade Christmas gifts is finished :-)

A ladder stitch knitted scarf for my mother in law. I love love love the stitch and may have to use it again for other projects, this is the first time I have used ladder stitch in knitting but it won't be the last...

May have to use finer wool next time for a different "feel" to the item (although saying that, this scarf feels soft and luxurious)
