Embroidery

Well this fills my heart......

when the next generation comes to you and wants to you to teach them embroidery.  My mama heart~

I went into action!

I taught them the basic three stitches, straight stitch, satin stitch and the chain stitch.  They went straight to work and got very quiet focusing on their stitches and designs. 

so focused......

The smiles say it all.....

They left with a new found love of embroidery and their projects to keep pouring into. 

One of the girls went home and added the chain stitch to her book bag

on the handles, she even made the chain stitch into a flower.

I love being able to pour into the girls a love that was a part of my life growing up.  It's so important to share these long lost hobbies.

What a fun time with them!
