* bits and bobs embroidery
Posted on April 17th, 2006 by maitreya. Filed under Cross Stitch/Embroidery.
There is some debate in the house about whether my cursive writing is legible, so I might redo that part. I seem to recall having trouble with lower case b’s when I was in second grade, too.
I’m so relieved these are turning out more or less how I imagined. I think one reason I procrastinated so long was that I was really worried it wouldn’t work.

Your writing is definitely legible and these little ‘drawings’ are by far my favorite! :)

Love your blog! what a wonderful resource for inspiration :) I’m very interested in Japanese crafting and was wondering if you had any insights or if you could point the way for a beginner? All the Best:)

I’m totally in love with your embroidery project… I think they all look fantastic, and what a fun idea!

What do you use to do the embroidering ? They are awesome!! When I try to do it with a simple needle and thread - they never turn out even looking close to what I want them to look like :)) Thanks!

just a weird thing: you have bits and bobs on your page today, and then i read neil gaiman’s journal, and the title for his journal entry of the day is “bits and bobs”. odd!
i was never any good at cursive either. i think the fact that we weren’t required to write it after like second grade when we learned it might have something to do with that.

wow! This is so lovely!
