Hi everyone, I know it's just after Christmas now and I am "better late than never" with my holiday message. I wish that this season, everyone has time to relax and enjoy each other as I just did with my 5 sweet grandchildren. Hence the lateness of this message. They were all here at various times with their parents (my 2 girls and spouses) and I enjoyed every minute of it. My house was a mess, dishes, laundry, food and toys strewn everywhere but we were all happy, warm and loved. No sewing happened, my sewing machines were lonely, not a creature was stirring in my studio space. Below is a photo of the only Christmas sewing/embroidery I did this year, some small gifts for friends and my sister a week or so before Christmas. I hope to do more gift sewing in 2025 and you know I will post all about it, either here in this blog or at BERNINA International's blog here: blog.bernina.com/en/?s=Robin+Bogaert  pin cushions and change purse embroidery on my BERNINA 790 PRO. Designs from Sweet Pea Embroidery What I am currently working on, some free standing lace with my BERNINA 790 PRO  Playing with Free Standing Lace- 11 designs in the MAXI Hoop! Wishing you all the Best for a Happy New Year and much love, health and happiness in 2025.
Please take time to rest, relax & rejuvenate because you and your family are worth it!❤️🤗 Hi there and Happy Wednesday! I just wanted to advise all of you sewist's out there who maybe need a gift idea or are in need of cosy slippers, that I just completed a tutorial for Slipper Booties "Tammy" from BERNINA 's Inspiration Magazine. Not my pattern, but I completed a blog tutorial so viewers would know in depth how to make them ( I made a minor modification).
