Today I'm blogging about hand stitching. I absolutely LOVE it. I'm still not very great at it, but it's something I'll have to practice more at. That means, I'll have more stuff to decorate my walls with!! I'm excited about that! We don't really have much on our walls, and I'd love to have them almost covered.
So I do have one finished project I was able to get a picture of. It's the white rabbit from Bad Birds blog. It's a free pattern and they're great for taking them and changing them just a tad. Here's what I came up with
Now, I didn't change the pattern a lot, just a little.
So, I got some books with patterns for hand stitching. Here's a great site for pretty much everything you need to start and finish your hand stitching projects. Plus there's so much free info on their, it's really worth checking out. Here you go, Sublime Stitching. There's really so much cool stuff there. It really makes you feel comfortable about starting a new craft. So if you're not into hand stitching because it's never been something you tried, just give it a shot. You don't know how awesome you'll be at it, if you don't try it, at least once. At best, you have an awesome piece to give as a gift, frame for yourself, or sell. At worst, you have something you tried and found out if you liked it or not. I hope you enjoy yourself with any project you try. So, I encourage anyone that happens upon this blog, to try something new! Share your progress or your issues with it!! There's bound to be someone that can help you! And if you're not a skin, we can't help.
Until next time,
