And I realized I have been remiss in not telling you where I got my embroidery motifs! Wow! Can't believe I did that.
Y'all know that I love all things ME, right? (Mary Engelbreit) I recently snagged a copy of one of her books (+ patterns) on Etsy:
This has so many (fifty-three) cute projects!
They can all be done in several ways -- what's your pleasure? Want to create them in applique? Cool. Instructions included! Want to embellish with markers? That's in here, too! Just want to create some simple, vintage-look embroideries? Easy peasy with the full size patterns folded in the pocket of the book!
So, with that in mind, here is my latest creation:
I am enjoying the process on these..... using Presencia perle cotton size 8 for the embroideries. It's keeping me from feeling like I need to jump up and do something, and my foot is responding - the swelling is going down.
See y'all next time!
Love,
Having something for your hands, one way to ensure you are being good!! Love those owls so much. And your stitching, this is a wonderful finish.
