Door Labels

Before I left for school I embroidered some letters to hang on our door.  A 'B' for me and a 'D' for my roommate. (This is the first year I'm living with someone different--I lived with my last roomie for all four years, it's going to be strange!)

I hung them up with some ribbon that drapes to the back and is taped on the top of the door.  

I'd still like to get some simple wrapping paper to cover up the ugly boring color of the door, but for now at least it's got something!


The design was loosely based on this adorable pattern from Scissor Quirk.

Beginning Embroidery

So I have a habit of looking at something and saying "I can do that, it looks like fun!" then going out, buying supplies, and making it.  Well...over Christmas break I said that about embroidery.  I grabbed supplies, read a little bit about it, grabbed my sketchbook and started making "patterns."


Here's a little bit of what I've made since that addiction started.

Christmas gift for my parents

I found this adorable pattern from Wild Olive.  Man does she have some talent! 

And then I got on a LOVE kick for Valentine's Day.

Hope you're all having a fabulous week (:
