Make it your own embroidery class -- show your work

I’m a bit late to the party. I have pieced a small cushion (12x18). I am sure I will make more. I am trying to upload pictures and am struggling. Anyone have a solution to the pics being too big?

Are you posting from a phone or a computer? If you email your picture to yourself at medium size that works for me.Then take the picture from your email to your desk top it will upload for me. Also, From my
computer I can click on the photo on the desk top and on the main menu at the top of the computer in Preview I go to Tools,
Adjust Size put pixels at 75 and Size at 70 percent and that works for me too. HelenW

In the warm and windy Davis mountains of West Texas for Christmas. Very little internet or cell phone service, thankful for this embroidery project, audiobooks, wine and beautiful scenery!

Helen W. Yes the pattern is from Crabapple Hill. They have a gingerbread house set that is too cute and I believe they have a witch series... Just fun things !

Working on the embroidery before I turn off my light as Christmas Day comes to a close. Pieced my background with Moda Grunge cottons, sandwiched with light batting, and more Grunge on the back. Circles and curves are made with bottle caps and round lids. Learning many new stitches on this layered embroidery. Very relaxing to embroider as improv! This week my granddaughter, Kayleigh, 5, is visiting and sleeping in my sewing room. We may work on a doll blanket together. Lots to do since I haven't seen her for 2 years, due to the pandemic. She is visiting Maryland from where they live in Minnesota. Making up for 2 years' worth of missed hugs and kisses too! Merry Christmas to All!!!

No, I am a quilter from California. I live close to Alex in the Bay Area. Thanks so much for the kind words about my stitching. I looked at tons of pictures on Pinterest and got really inspired by so many projects.

Thanks Carol, I looked at lots of embroidery projects on Pinterest and I saw several that filled in with little patterns.

Donna - I just LOVE this! Filling up the spaces between the shapes is a great idea.
