Annie's Table: Needlepoint

Hi! Welcome to my cosy little corner of the internet and the Annie's Table blog. :D Most often you'll find me working on embroidery, needlework and quilting. But i'll try my hand at anything; knitting, paper craft and card making, even baking. Because whats an afternoon tea break without a good slice of vanilla sponge cake eh. I like posting patterns and tutorials, and sharing my explorations into new crafts and techniques. I love hearing from my visitors, so any questions or feedback pls don't be shy!

Needlepoint

My mum gave me this needlepoint kit to finish off. She managed to do one side of the border but found it a bit hard going on the eyes as it's very small stitches. For my first try at needle point I don't think it's too bad. Now i just need to find a nice frame for it.

Happy Easter :D

Nursery Rhymes

I just had to share this with you. This amazing piece of work was given to me by my soon to be mother-in-law. It was made for my fiance by his aunt when he was a baby and is just the most gorgeous thing i have ever seen.
I can only imagine how much time and effort has gone into this, and considering it's nearly 30 years old it's in amazing condition! The colours and detail are stunning.
