I was totally inspired by a fantastic post on Under the Sycamore. Go there, read it, I do every day! I thought to myself "I have some embroidery thread I can embroider!" Hmmm did I mention that I've never embroidered before. I have some great vintage fabric that I'm using as a theme for the boys room. I like that its not too babyish for my 7 yr old. Not that he would care too much anyways. The boys both seem to be pretty laid back. It had been used before as curtains but I'm using it for a baby blanket (I know that by the time I finish that blanket he probably won't be a baby anymore) and in this case some wall art. I had planned on just framing the fabric squares but by adding some embroidery I really made it pop. Not to mention I put his little name on it. I am so in love with this fabric. The frame is a really cheap one that the glass had been broken out of. I just used some spray paint to change the color. I promise when I finish their room I will let you see it.
Wow! What a cool idea. I love reading all of your blogs :)
