We completed two new patterns - as usual - today and I enjoyed the making of them both equally. They are very different in style.
They are both finished and ready to be mounted on cards. I haven't decided what colour card to use yet so that is partly why I haven't finished them completely.
The first card is called 'Ribbons' Pat no. jm132.
Judith explained the background to her design and it is based on a Japanese 'Noshi'.
Originally this was a bunch of reed, tied in the middle and represented 'humility'. Now 'Noshi' is a bunch of ribbons, usually given for good luck, or to decorate a gift.
Here is 'Noshi'.
The second card is called 'Bells across the Snow' and is Pat no. jm131. Again I haven't finished the presentation.
I need to be able to see a bit better before I can mount them on matts that are straight so I will show them off again when that has been done.

Two fabulous projects Carol, I really love the Christmas scene it has such a traditional feel to it.
