I recently embroidered a small wall hanging to give away. It is a pattern that I bought from Jenny of Elefantz. Jenny is a frequent blogger and a brilliant stitcher from Australia.
I had such fun embroidering these cute little houses. Jenny had four houses in the pattern, but I opted to use three for this wall hanging.
Here is the first close-up. Notice the little "home" sign and the cute bunny.
Next close-up with even a wonky mailbox!
A super close-up of the third house, showing wonky windows and curtains, and the cute yellow flowers.
Jenny's patterns are nicely drawn and easy to follow. I ironed a light stabilizer onto the back, and traced the lines with my Frixion pen. Then I embroidered the designs without using a hoop. I find that gives me more freedom, and that it is easier to reach all areas of the design. But however you like to embroider, I recommend giving Jenny's patterns a try. She has quite a few, and they are all cute.
Wow- this is so cute! You did a brilliant job on my design, making it prettier than ever.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Jan!

Thanks, Jenny! It was so much fun to do. I'll probably have to make some more of those cute houses. Maybe change up the colors or something.
