I hope my knitting needles don't mind being tucked away this winter as I have been well and truly bitten by the embroidery bug. All seven babygros have been finished. Roses for the twins, space rocket for baby S, a pusscat and bird for little B and a truck and spaceship for new kid on the block, T.They are so quick and easy to do - iron, needle, thread and scissors. To think of the hours spent knitting baby blankets and booties, whilst therapeutic, not exactly quick particularly when there were so many little ones arriving this year! All the designs came from Sublime Stitching - although I have bought myself an embroidery pen to have a go myself at some point...but that will have to wait until the tapestry is finished. It has been, along with everything else, royally neglected. I have completed 'U' and 'G' - which makes me chuckle each time I look at it. Pickle has taken quite a shine to it too!
They're lovely, I'm sure they'll be greatly appreciated!! And definitely much quicker than knitting that's for sure - great choice!
ReplyDeleteOh those are gorgeous! What lucky babes! K x
ReplyDeleteoh! These are soooo delightful! I love the stitching! xxx
ReplyDeleteI love the sublime stitching website!! I'm hoping that someone will have listened to the many many many many hints I have dropped and something will appear in my stocking at Christmas!
ReplyDeleteHow lovely - I've got some sublime stitching transfer thingies that I've been meaning to use for more or less a year now. You've remind me that I really should give it a go - yours are just so pretty!
