T used to embroider as a kid with her Grandma Draper, but wasn't something she paid too much attention to at the time. Over the past few years shehas really wanted to get back into it but was having trouble finding any resources to learn (or relearn). Finally she came across a wonderful site called Sublime Stitching and its just been a cascade of resources and inspiration ever since. These are pillow cases she did for the kids on her break from school. She's currently working on a gift for Cousin Julia, so no pics of that yet. Don't want to ruin the surprise! B has also requested a second pillow case with flowers and the Eiffel tower, so that's up next.
P.S. If you are in the PDX area and are interested, there is info on the Sublime Stitching website for a local group that gets together to embroider and craft. Another item on the reasons we love/miss Portland list!
