A bit more ......

........ progress on one of the seascapes.  Layers of chiffon, a bit of machine stitching, wisps of fibre,a couple more scraps and some more embellishing .................



I find the 12 needle Baby Lock embellisher can be a bit overpowering for finer work so removed most of the needles to embellish down some yarns and fibres.  Replacing the needles a couple of days later, 3 of them won't go fully in and protrude up to a quarter of an inch.  It's not the needles as we've tried different ones so Baby Lock suggest I return the unit for investigation as the needle holder may be out of alignment inside the unit - don't seem to be having much luck with machinery these days!

Some pretty hair scrunchies for the Christmas shoeboxes ......................
 
 

Now just to decide which ones to put in each box.
