Plant Kindness, Gather Love Stitchable

Hi there! I hope you all had a good weekend! :)  I have a fun new embroidery project to share with you.  I love embroidery, it is really quite relaxing to me and I especially love it in the winter time! 

I designed this simple pattern with Valentine's Day in mind:

I had a lot of fun designing and stitching up this lovely pattern!  I went for a more primitive look for this specific pattern - and I love how it turned out.

 I decided to turn my stitchery into a pillow! I decided on a scrappy-happy log cabin block! I love the scrappy goodness and all those colorful pinks and reds!

Valentine's Day Stitchable {Free Pattern}

Hi there! I hope you all are enjoying your weekend! Today I have another embroidery project for you.  I love these little Stitchables! They are so fun to make! 

I have been on a Valentine's Day decorating kick, and knew I wanted an embroidered piece on my entry table.  So I came up this Valentine's Day Stitchable:

You could make this your own by switching up the floss colors to your taste.  You could just do the traditional red and pink and it would look just as lovely.  I added in some blues and a green to mix it up a little bit.  This is also a very simple pattern and perfect for a beginner.  There are only two stitches in this pattern - the simple back stitch and the running stitch.   

I decided I wanted to frame mine, so I had my husband make me a frame especially for this piece.  I painted it red, and sanded it a bit to rough up the edges.  I then cut a piece of batting the same size of my fabric and placed on the back of my fabric (this is optional, but I just like how it looks when I do it this way) I then had my husband use his staple gun to staple the fabric and batting to the back of the frame.  

I really love how it turned out, and it sure looks cute on my entry table! :) 

You can download the pattern right HERE for free! 

If you make one, I would love to see! Please shoot me an email with a pic! 

Talk to you soon!

Snowman Stitchable

Happy Sunday!  I hope you have enjoyed your weekend.  Last night it started snowing, I feel like it's way too early for snow!! I think I could have used a few more weeks of fall and the mild weather.  :)  Since we now have the white stuff on the ground, I think it's only fitting to share this fun new stitchable with you today.  

Nothing says winter, quite like a snowman does! :)

Hi there! I am in love with today's project I am going to show you! I have caught the embroidery bug, and I really can't stop! :)

Embroidery Inspiration

I have become obsessed with embroidery.  I love it!  I love the look of handwork, and the vintage vibe it has.  I think embroidery is becoming more popular again and I have seen so many beautiful pieces and designs lately and wanted to share some with you! 

These are just a few that I picked out, but you can follow our Embroidery Pinterest board here for many more ideas and inspiration!

  

This embroidery just blows me away! What a fantastic way to make a sampler!  I love the negative heart space--it really just makes this piece pop! :)
