In Progress: My Embroidered Floral Hand

Sara Barnes

If you fol­low me on Insta­gram, you’ve prob­a­bly seen the embroi­dery I start­ed. It com­bines two of my favorite things to draw — flow­ers and embroidery.

I’ve been play­ing with some dif­fer­ent stitch­es, includ­ing the long-and-short-stitch that out­lines the flo­ral hand.  Hop­ing to be done with it by next week!

If you’ve ever con­sid­ered embroi­der­ing, I’d rec­om­mend it! it’s a rel­a­tive­ly inex­pen­sive hob­by to start and I per­son­al­ly find it real­ly calm­ing. Like yoga for your brain (Maybe? Sure.).
