Mother's Day Gift: Embroidered Kid's Writing



If I had any good sense, I would have taken a pic before framing it.

For my mom's Mother's Day gift, I had all three of my kids (12, 6, and 2) write something on some fabric and then I embroidered over it. I used a modified satin stitch to really get the feeling of kid's handwriting. And let me tell you, embroidering all wonky-like is not as easy as it may seem!

All the kids chose their own colors, except my youngest. I chose for him, because he's small and I own him.

A somewhat better shot of the detail:


Happy Mother's Day everyone!

  1. It's so cute!

    Although, I like how you comment about having good sense.

    If we had any good sense, we wouldn't be artists, love. ;)
