For the Love of EMBROIDERY

I'm not a crocheter.
I'm not a cross-stitcher.
And, heaven knows I'm not a knitter...


Nope. If I learned something, it would be embriodery.
I've fallen in love with it.


And, it just seems shameful that I could purchase these precious, little pieces for only pennies.


One day...one day...

  2. Holly---that's actually needlepoint, and there has been a resurgence in interest. (Growing up, I was required to learn all of it--needlepoint, embroidery, cross stitch--both stamped and counted, knitting, crocheting, rug hooking, and how to sew.)Of all of these, needlepoint is the easiest to learn. It's a great thing to do to "unwind," as you really don't have to think about it. (Although with a baby, you probably just want to collapse!)

  3. These are so cute! I've been collecting crewelwork pieces for my daughter's room redesign! I have about 7 in varying sizes and have plans for a gallery wall!
