Great for using up scraps of linen and all those ends of skeins.
I upcycle old linens that may have a saveable area still on them.
I draw a square or rectangle to fit within that area and then just freehand draw a simple picture.
I use a 5HB pencil to draw with and it stays quite well as I stitch.
I'm still not sure what I will do with them. Ideas include
A pocket on a childs dress, Small pincushion.
A small wall hanging maybe.Add to a country style crazy quilt.
I just love to stitch and dont always worry about what I'm going to use the embroidery for. The stitching is my thing :).
On Sella I have heaps of sewing patterns and various Art n Craft books and patterns for sale. http://www.sella.co.nz/store/4qsvxx/freeone
