These great scarves are a quick project and I will be giving some away as Christmas gifts. I use them after a workout or for a walk in the park and they are great to throw in the laundry. No pattern is necessary – fabric required is approx. 2-1/2 yards length and approx. 22-26″ wide before seaming long edge. Ends are slightly tapered. I can get 2 scarves from 2-1/2 yards, and I may piece together the extra strips and combine 2 colors – gray and lime, gray and pink? Next one will be pink or pink polka dots.

The owl design in pink and brown. I am finalizing the steps and illustrations for the pattern for final review before sending to the printer. Now that I have finished the pink, my favorite is the gray and brown and blues. What do you think about the pink?

This little cross stitched owl is perched on a branch with beaded flowers. His eyes are worked in a ribbed spider web stitch, stitched over rings. The blackwork moon behind him gets its dimension using a 2-1/2″ covered button form.
Design size is approximately 3″ x 3-1/2″, and frame size is 5″ x 5″.
Buy the finished and framed piece.

Started on a new project with large print fabric with 1 yard repeat and 1/2 yard half drop. The fabric is from Ikea, and no longer available, so we are seeing what our options are for a little girl’s room.
3 yards of fabric side by side |
Fabric shifted 27″ and approx. 12″ from selvage to match. |
It is so much easier to use photoshop to work through this and have discussions!
