This weekend we went to a craft store. The girls chose some Valentine fabric for little pillows I have in mind made from a Sampler Girl freebie. I mentioned to Nutmeg that it would be cute to stitch up a few for her a couple of her besties. She misunderstood; I was suggesting
she stitch them! Maybe we will stick to candy this year...
I divided my weekend stitching time between
Mary Queen of Scots and
Anonymous Women. I picked up a few DMC colors I was missing and so was able to stitch some of the "fun bits" of
Anonymous Women, in particular that big glow-y flower. I stitched it incorrectly. I decided to call it
personalization and leave it.
This will be the week the girls and I conquer the sewing machine. If we can get past Latin, French, Math, Composition,
et al. hmmmmm....
Your girls chose some very pretty fabrics! And your stitching on both pieces is just lovely.
