Consequently there hasn't been any new embroidery started this week, I am terrified of having nothing new to show you mid week so will be onto that as soon as I have finished here. In the meantime my cushion fronts were hanging there, pinned to the wall crying ''please make me into a proper cushion''!!
So, and don't tell my doctor, the leg came down and I made three of these little pads to go inside.
Then I made this button to finish off the transfer cushion. Now this I could do sitting with the leg in the air!
and Voila!! We have three new cushions, one a gift, two to sell. 
Now I have a proper little cushion factory going on at home. They all look so good together that it will actually be very hard to part with any of them.
I will definitely be back midweek. There may not be much to show you but trust me I will do my best. x

What have you been doing to get tendonitis in your leg? The cushions look great. My favourite is the one with the little woven flowers and seed stitching. Hope the leg gets plenty of rest and feels better soon
I really really love the one with the pale turquoise running stitch grid and the seed stitch around the holes. Absolutely gorgeous work.
Look after your leg..Oh..but it might warrant a bit of time off....!
So sorry to hear about your misery...(I'm not a good invalid either!). Hope it is better soon.
I love all three of the pieces but my favorite is the pale one with tiny flowerettes in circles.
To the couch with you! And keep that leg elevated whilst you embroider
They are all so pretty Karen, and I adore the one with the blue, green and pink circles, all adorned with seed stitches.
So sorry to hear about your leg. Try to rest a bit, (I know it's hard with so many ideas wanting to be born!) Best wishes for a speedy recovery!
...love!
karen this is mum i confirm she will love her cushion and please do keep that leg up!
keep that leg up :-) I know its tiresome, maybe hand embroidery and a glass of something nice?
I send you many wishes for quick recovery. So sorry to hear this. Your cushions look so crisp and springlike. They go perfectly with that bright sun out there!
Your cushions look so lovely together.
I like seeing all the different stitches.
Do take it easy with your leg,I advise laying on the sofa and doing some hand stitching.
Oh!hope you recover soon, Karen!
If I have to choose...I'll choose all the cushions, of course!
And TAKE CARE! Leg UP, please
thanks everyone for the sympathy and the orders to keep my leg up!!! I have been trying, honest!
You get back on your feet- literally-as soon as you are better and not before. You could always show us some more of your sketchbooks on Wednesday...
The cushions look great all piled up together. Hope your leg gets better soon. x

Good luck with the leg!
Awwww, poor you! At least you have something beautiful to look at as you mend yourself. Best wishes to your nearest and dearest!
fabulous cushions! take care of your leg. i had tendonitis and didn't take it seriously and have damaged my foot permanently. yes-it does me grumpy sometimes!!
Sorry to read about your leg - hope it's better soon...but you'd better follow the doc's advise! I think you're really onto something with those pillows - I mean cushions - they are fabulous! So beautiful and cheery - I'll bet they sell like hotcakes at a loggers convention! xo, Nan
My favorite is the one with the abundance of seed stitching...Beautiful work.
