Chookshed Stitchers 2024 Challenge projects.
January was project #6 which I had listed as Mystery Project #1.
My January project was for my soon to be daughter-in-law, Paris.
Now that I gifted these to Paris at her
Bridal Shower I can share photos.
I made Paris a covered hanger for her wedding dress.
It is made from the same fabric that my wedding dress
was made of. My brother and I made my wedding dress
and I still had left over fabric. I would have happily cut
up my actual dress to make the hanger as having three boys,
no-one was going to want to wear it!
I also made Paris a garter to wear on their special day.
I couldn't find a nice charm so added the drop pearl bead.
My wedding headpiece (above) was also handmade
using some of these beads so again I
have added a touch of our wedding to Paris and Austin's.
Deana has now announced our February project number.
Number 2 on my list is Mystery Project #2.
You may have now guessed that it's something to do with
the wedding so you'll have to wait a bit to find out what it is!
I haven't forgotten about sharing our amazing
two month trip to Scotland and England.
After hours and hours (and hours),
I have finally got my photos sorted into order.
When they uploaded, they were all over the place so I manually
went through my phone and renumbered everything in date order.
All 4342 of them!
Hopefully it won't take me too long but as the wedding
is in three weeks, I might be a little busy!
