two new lodestar samples done, two more to go

Two more final Lodestar Tree Topper samples completed, with probably two more to go. I need to make at least one pendant version to show you, and I think I may do that one as a simplified star, without the embroidery. 

I'm working on edits to the PDF pattern instructions on the fly. Progress is slow but steady, y'all!

Shown: Benzie felts: Aqua, Julep, White, silver metallic and gold metallic

Happy Easter!

Romans 6:4-7

May this Lord's day find you healthy, happy, and surrounded on all sides by the blessings and love of God. It would not go amiss if you were also surrounded by a variety of desserts at some point with a frothy cup of coffee to top it off.

Lodestar ornaments

The upcoming Lodestar Tree Topper pattern will include a few variations, like the Christmas ornaments you see here. Out of this one pattern you will be able to make a fancy tree topper, window pendant, garland, ornaments, mini tree topper, and mini ornaments. 

I forgot to post this photo to my blog, which shows the very poinsettia-like red tree topper with the fancy new alternate 3 point rays in place. Those are also included as an option in the pattern, or you can use the original 1 point rays.

It's still going to be a while until I can release the pattern, but it's going well. I have written and illustrated the first draft, and am now making final samples and edits. The sample making will only take 1000 years. LOL Fewer if I have more coffee. It's slow stitching, y'all.
