embroidery

Have I  mentioned that I have been 
keeping busy with some embroidery??
Well. I have. 
This first piece took me about 3 weeks to complete. 


I have no way to show you how gianormus this actually is... 
I was going to frame it and then thought it would be fun to stick it in a gigantic 
hoop. and put a little Amy Butler Soul Blossoms on the side. 
{I am sure my Mother will think that I ruined it by doing that..}

Oh well, i thought it was fun. 

Every single letter was different. 


i think that Q was my favorite. 


and I really loved the X...


Z was pretty cute too. 


this next one is a Sarah Jane pattern. 
Except there are supposed to be 2 boys in the picture.
but since I was blessed with  3 girls 
I only did them.






That little girl... with the french knot hair... 
reminds me of Maddie with her curls. 


I haven't figured out where to hang them but I 
think maybe going up the stairs would be a 
cute spot for some hoop art.

I love, love, love the ABC's. Gorgeous. The Amy Butler fabric you used is my favorite. My daughter's room is covered in the stuff. I stopped myself before stapling it to the walls. Gorgeous. I haven't embroidered anything since I was a teenager but you are totally inspiring me to get back at it!
