Something New!

Look what I did today!  I bought the stuff to do embroidery awhile ago, and finally had an hour today to try a design from a book I have.  I LOVE HIM!!

Adorable! Is it freehand then, or do you do a transfer rub before stitching? Or is it by machine? Whatever the method, he's a handsome birdie. So cute!

He is so sweet!!! You are far too crafty Melanie!

Nik, it's a transfer. I ironed it on, then stitched. Super cool book called Sublime Stitching Craft Pad by Jenny Hart. :)

Love the little birdy!!! Did your book teach you specific stitches? I did embroidery eons ago. I might even have my hoops still. But, I've forgotten a lot.
