I took a break from Christmas present making today to start a little something for myself! I picked up the Venti Mug Rug pattern from The Frosted Pumpkin Stitchery* last month and decided to pull it out last night. I choose some of my favorite fabrics and a cotton/linen blend. It came together so quickly and is great for scraps! I grabbed some pearle cotton to hand quilt it with this afternoon :)
I finished the Toast BFFs cross-stitch from The Frosted Pumpkin Stitchery* this morning! I'm so happy with how it turned out! Mine is peanut butter and strawberry jam! Now I just need to make something cute out of it like Christina did! Next I'm going to stitch the Je T'aime Cocoa pattern!
I received the postcards I won along with the Scandinavian Stitches book from Kajsa yesterday! They are SO cute! Now to decide what to do with them! Thanks Kajsa and Christina!
