Another wonderful Sunday afternoon in my craft room. I used one of my favorite inspirations today, PYREX!
The first thing I did was choose a beautiful yellow polka dot fabric. My mom gave me this fabric for Christmas
I found a picture on the internet that I printed out and put on my light box.
Once you have your design traced the real fun can begin
I chose the crazy daisy pattern as my inspiration on this project.
I free handed the daisy flowers, which scared me a little because I am not good at drawing. However I thought they came out pretty cute.
I love how no project is perfect because when I started using my white thread it got all knotted up and I could not get it out. I had to pull out that whole row of stitches and restart. Such is the life of a crafter.
I found a lovely font to trace onto my project.
Trace your wording onto your project.
YAY! We are getting almost done
I found this great oval hoop at the craft store. I did not even know they came in an oval shape. I was pretty excited for a different style of hoop.
Next I glued down the excess fabric around the frame
ITS DONE!!!!
Here is the final project with its matching friends
What have you been working on lately?

I am so impressed. I want to get back to needlework. I haven't done it in a few years. Yours looks great.

ReplyDeleteOh, how cute! I have never done needlework like this, only cross-stitch. But I was looking at some kits at a store yesterday. I would like to replicate some work like my grandmother did.
