Saucey Apples and Dancing Cookies, what next?

Just wanted to show you some of the things I have been making.  This first pattern is from an iron on transfer set called Happy Fruit.  I bought the transfers from Pattern Bee.   The tea towel was purchased from Embroider This. 

  This is the front of Apple Sauce.  I think it turned out rather cute.   I can’t tell you want colors I used, because this thread was in my sewing basket with no tags.  It is not your normal bright apple red thread.  I used a dark red and dark green, to match my kitchen colors.   Now for the back.

  Here is the back of the Apple Sauce.  Stitches used were back stitch, stem stitch, daisy, cross, satin, and straight stitch.

  I did not use a transfer pattern on this towel.  I searched Ivy’s Coloring Pages for Christmas Cookies.  When I found what I wanted, I just cut out the cookies and traced them onto the towel.  If I do another one of these I would put the tree on the right side and the bell on the left.  Right now I think it looks a little heavy on the left side; not balanced.  Since this is for me, I still like it.  😀

And the back.     Not too bad, if I do say so myself.  😀  This is called Redwork.  The main stitch here is the stem stitch. Very easy and mindless to do.  

Hope you enjoyed looking at them.  🙂
