Last week I completed another embroidery project, this one for my niece who is turning 16.
She wouldn't give her mother or I any ideas as to what she wanted, so I had to improvise. I decided to make her a pretty pillowcase with some other goodies.
I'm not the seamstress my mother is by a long shot, and I was late getting her this gift, so I had to work quickly but I tried to stitch as neatly as possible. Even tho the design was pre-stamped, it took some concentration on my part...
I think it came out nicely - looks like it's for a lady. Very feminine.
I packaged it up with a sleep mask and some aromatherapy spray. I wish I had thought to buy a gift bag, but this will work:
voila!
Happy Birthday, Miss Liv. Hope you have the sweetest of birthdays!

The pillow case turned out lovely. What a thoughtful gift. Handmade is always the best.
The embroidery is lovely! That is a LOT of work. Anything hand made is a treasure...beautiful!
What a beautiful gift and what a thoughtfu Aunty you are! She must have felt so special Gina! The cereal box looked great when you got done with it! Angie xo
What a sweet gift!! The cereal box cracked me up, though. :) Creative. I remember my mom teaching me embroidery stitches when I was pretty young. I wonder if I would remember how to do it today?
Blessings!
