welcome to the world | an embroidered birth announcement for Jonas

Just a quick post today! I love making "paper" with fabric and thread, and when I posted a picture of a piece on instagram my friend Ashley commented that it would make a cute baby announcement. Well, she was pregnant at the time so I filed that away and then made this for her son's room. I've made a few embroidered notes over the years and there's still something special about them to me. I definitely need to work on my embroidery skills though!

  1. Very cute. Now with the right frame or way to hang it, perfect!

  2. do you write it then go over it or do you freehand? i prefer free hand but have used sketches to hone in a specific feel or for precision... i wish i could teach, but it is more of a feeling to me, like instinct.
