Did some embroidery....

Sunday, December 04, 2016

Hello all! These past few weeks I have been experimenting with some embroidery! I have done a little bit of cross stitching in the past but not much though I really enjoyed it! So I thought it would be fun to do some little designs to spice up some outfits I've been sewing lately.


I didn't follow a pattern for these flowers, I kinda just made it up but I want to get some books out from the library about hand embroidary and attempt some more designs and maybe some letters, I think that would be so cool!

This is the design on the skirt, I made these skirt overalls from a pair of my sisters old jeans. I think they are super cute with the headband and everything!

Oh and who can forget Log, the Lamb-Dog! I posted a pic on instagram and you guys seemed to have liked his name! It's a bit silly but it suits him!

I was going for that kinda of doodle style with the flowers where not every petal is the same etc.. I don't know but I really loved how they came out!!


Thanks so much for reading! I've finally finished all my exams and I am just relaxing and distressing. But I have auditions for my school musical over the next few days so that doesn't help with the stress, but oh well! I need to take some more photos! I'm loving everyone's dolls and christmas tree photos so I might try that with our tree... I'll just see what happens! But my family is getting ready for christmas and I'm getting ready to go down and see ROGUE ONE WITH MY OLDER BROTHER NEXT WEEEEEK!! I'm so excited! Ok I love you guys and talk soon
Happy Doll Loving

    You did a very nice job on your embroidery. I have done quite a bit of it, but it has been a while. I have made each of my sisters and sisters-in-law an embroidered pillow and I had made several baby bibs and a baby flour blanket all embroidered. Plus I have done quite a few Christmas ornaments too! You are inspiring me to pick that hobby up again!
