Embroidered Hankies
For Christmas I decided to embroider some hankies for my Nan. I bought Aimee Rays awesome Doodle Stitching books earlier in the year and loved pretty much all the designs in the book, so it was a pretty easy to find patterns I wanted to stitch. They took two evenings to stitch up, and are done using two strands of thread with backstitch and satin stitch. I drew the patterns on with a pencil, tracing the pattern from the book. Here's some close up shots -
I think this cat one is my favourite of the bunch :) ^^
(I actually have the same initials as both my Nan and Mum).
These were really fun to make, and very quick to stitch up. Will definitely be making some more :)
Thanks for reading, Vicki x
