It’s Day One of Christmas in July, and I’m sharing what I learned in a darling class by Kelli May-Krenz! I tried out her Sugarplum Stitching online course and I am hooked on this technique. Layering hand painted fabric, stitches, sequins and beads is my new favorite thing to do, I even carried a little bag of embroidery goodies with me to travel! There are many ornament patterns and lessons in the class.

I started with these Sugarplum Gumdrops, with Kelli’s guidance every step of the way. They are so scrumptious, sparkly and nostalgic, and she is a delightfully engaging and gentle teacher. I highly recommend you give her class a try!

If you’re loving holiday inspo in July, you won’t want to miss the creative projects from my crafty cohorts all week long, watch tomorrow for Susan M. Brown, followed by Try it - like it - create it and JuanitasCasita.

Vintage fabric in this project is from Betty's Bits and Bobs, I’m fairly obsessed with their products!

Made some pretty things today with Lisa Horton’s stunning interference inks and her new new stencil deck of 52 patterns in a box the size of a deck of cards. They’re perfectly sized for artist trading cards, which is what these will grow up to be. What a joy to sit and layer color and pattern onto paper for a while.
