Today's stitching

I am procrastinating from many other things, but today I was pretty productive stitching wise!

First, a felt needle book. I will never be able to do felt crafts properly because I can't get the hang of blanket stitch, as you can see from my horrible stitching. But it's just a temporary piece until I get some time to cross-stitch something and put my book together from that. This was just put together from bits and bobs I had around the house.


And then while I was looking for my felt pieces I found my button making stuff, so I decided to stitch this little guy quickly and make a button out of him. Graphed him myself, so have been looking for some time to stitch him up. Now that I have, I see that there are some things I'm not too happy about his expression, so I think I will change that a little and restitch to see how that looks.
