in honor of my 2012 word "PRACTICE"..I have been practicing my stitching and not only practiced "French Knots" yesterday..I finished my first "Doodle-Gone-Stitched-Scrapple-Stitchery"
What once upon a time was a doodle...
became an embroidery pattern on muslin
Yippeee..and now what do I do with it..not sure yet...but I will figure something out (I have a couple ideas!)
Right now I just like to glance at it about 150 times a day!















It is truly beautiful!!!!

It's beautiful Stephanie! It would be so nice in a frame, but maybe a sweet pillow...
can't wait to see what you come up with.

You've done a fabulous job! Have you tried needlepunch yet, think you'd love it given your other needlework talents

Take a look at this blog - http://teresamcfayden.typepad.com/minutia/2010/02/that-valentines-day-sampler.html
I made a sampler and hung it with a old hanger on a old door knob

my vote is a pillow. you can add a border around it to make it bigger if it needs it. so stinkin cute.
another GREAT idea is to make it a gift for your sweet friend Suezi! bahahaaaa!!!

Girl, that is beautiful!!! I used to do crewel embroidery....have a box full of stitched stuff I was always going to make pillows out of. Excellent work - your doodle was cute enough, but this brought it to life :)
