One project down..(If you are my sister, Jill, don't read this!)

SISTER, DON'T READ THIS!  IT'S A GIFT FOR YOU!


I finished this little project for my sister and her fiance.  Their shower is in a few weeks.  Since my sister and her fiance are traveling with the national tour of Les Miserables, this means I can just pick up a gift card in addition to my little present.  The less they have to travel with the better.  Plus, they really don't have a house right now.    


I printed this pattern online and then had to trace it and iron it on before actually embroidering it.  I forgot how hard tracing was!  I was a little disappointed in my tracing abilities, but I'm sure they will get better.  I'm working hard on a few crochet projects and will hopefully be able to teach a few friends to embroider some tea towels this week.  As always, too many projects and not enough time!


























I'm linking up again with Sarahndipities! She's got a great giveaway going on, so check. it. out!

  2. Lovely. Tracing is tricky. When I was in a typography class we had to render different fonts precisely. It is a lot more difficult than one might suppose. You did a fabulous job!
