I hope your weekends were are wonderful, relaxing, and productive as mine was! Greg and I got to spend some really nice quality time together this weekend and really that is all I could ask for :) On top of that I had time to make some really fun things I've been wanting to make. Here's a little sample:
I did my FIRST embroidery project ever! I think it turned out quite lovely! I was inspired by Margaret Oomen's "lichenscapes". Her blog {Resurrection Fern} is really awesome and you should all check it out :) Now for the embroidery! {{{Tell me if you can see which lichenscape I based it off of}}}
I also made two t-shirt bags from old t-shirts that don't fit anymore but I love too much to throw away. I found the tutorial for this awesome "no sew" project here. Although, I did end up doing a quick stitch around the edges for some added support since my tees were really old and thin.
You see? Quite productive! I hope you have a great day friends, and I'll see you all tomorrow morning.

i know but it isn't fair of me to answer :)
ReplyDeletei can't believe that is your first embroidery project
such natural talent
Thank you for the compliment Margie! I really appreciate it! Thank you for the inspiring photos :) I'll let you know if I make any more from your photos. But I think I might use some images from a book about organisms my husband has. This is fun fun fun. I really enjoyed making that one.

this isn't his/her idea ..
ReplyDeleteHello Anonymous,
ReplyDeleteBoth of my projects in this post are linked to other people. The lichenscape embroidery is based off of several photos from Margie, who I linked to. And the t-shirt bags I made based on a tutorial on another persons blog who I also linked to. I did not take credit for those ideas, I clearly gave credit to the other blogs.
