Inspiration
I have been planning the girl’s spring wardrobe for several weeks now, but we’ve been so busy I haven’t had any time to actually sew. So I have been looking for something to give me a kick in the pants to get started.
Here it is: Primrose Design has been posting an amazing Stitch School. I love this. Her pictures are so clear. I used to collect all these embroidery dictionaries from Colonial Williamsburg when I was a kid. We visited my Grandmother in CWE every year, and they published these tiny books of stitches. I loved them. The instructions at Primrose reminds me of a lot of the stitches I used to find in these books.
I especially want to try the Italian Stitch along the edge of a pair of capris…or even up the side.
