Lovin’ embroidery

Written by Vicky on June 30, 2008 – 4:23 pm -

Can I tell you how much I love embroidery? I’m not great at it, I’ve just started to learn a few basic stitches but I love it!

The fab thing about embroidery is the way you can contrast colours against a background and it has to be one of the most soothing crafts I’ve ever done.

Here are a couple of things I’ve made recently using embroidery. Both of them ended up being gifts.

Apologies for the quality of the photos, my camera seems to be in a bad mood all the time lately.

    Sop glad you’re enjoying the embroidery - a birdie purse - how cute can you get (but you know I am a sucker for a birdie!)xx
