CraftandCreativityFound these cross stitch Holiday tags on Helena Schaeder Soderberg’s Swedish blog, Craft & Creativity. Would be a fun weekend project. Complete instruction is on her blog and the perforated tag is available in the Swedish online shop, Make & Create. What luck…they ship internationally! You follow Craft & Creativity on Facebook as well.

MaxineSuttonArtwork by UK textile designer and fine artist, Maxine Sutton.

“My work continues to explore the interplay between screen-printed and embroidered textures, colour, mark, drawn and stitched lines. Often playing with imagery and ideas springing from our relationship with familiar domestic objects, everyday pastimes, the meaning of ‘home’ and home-making activities. Abstract and semi-figurative forms combined with pattern and texture present an ambiguous narrative.”
