I miss sewing, I do. I've got the itch to make some patchwork but for now it's all about this...
and this...
and of course, my three other hooligans. Whole days have gone by where I haven't made a single stitch because I have a hard time starting when I know I've only got a few minutes. Our days have been full, but time is ticking and I am excited to get the pattern out to you. I will have it in my etsy shop this weekend, I hope.
Just so you know, the lettering was completely drawn by hand. It looks like a font, but I labored with my pencil and eraser getting it exactly the way I wanted it ~ hours of work are packed into those letters. The flowers, though, are changing a bit as I stitch. It's funny to me that I can't follow even my own pattern exactly. I hope you'll enjoy stitching the pattern to your own liking, too.
Have a great week, my dears, and enjoy these little bits of beauty I've found on flickr:
