Embroidery

Lately I’ve had a slight obsession with embroidery. I can’t seem to get enough of it. It all started with when I saw this adorable embroidered love note and I had to make one for my own sweet (nerdy) husband.

My next project idea came from my sister’s house, where she has an embroidered quote that I just can’t get enough of. Here is the version that I came up with. It still needs to be ironed out and framed, but you get the idea.

As I don’t have a lot of embroidery experience I was pretty proud of my flowers. Especially the red one.

After that I decided to make someone an embroidered thank you gift. Simple, but sweet. Don’t you think? (This one still needs to be ironed out and framed as well.)

And my current project, which is definitely still a work in progress, is my first attempt at an embroidered monogram. The curve in the p has been a little difficult but I think it’s turning out nicely.
