I am on vacation and have taken a redwork embroidery project with me. I’m embroidering cotton dishtowels with kitchen utensil themed designs.
I finished one quite a while ago, and have finished two more while on this trip. Here are pictures of all three: (excuse the wrinkles, we are in a motel and I am not ironing them here)
Aren’t they cute? The patterns are old “Aunt Martha’s” transfer patterns. I have several other Aunt Martha transfer patterns also, and they are fun to look at - always with dreams of making something with them.
We are near Lake Michigan and the waves are very strong. So beautiful.
Penny Lane so wanted to swim, but we wouldn’t let her go in. She will have to wait until next summer when we can go in with her.
What are you working on or playing with or starting today? Please join our Design Wall Monday Linky Party below and show us. We have so much variety in our group. I appreciate all of you and your participation so much. Thank you!
Looks like you are enjoying your vacation. I'm sure it's nice and quiet along the lake now. Happy embroidering!
ReplyDeleteI'm sure Penny Lane would be shocked at how cold it would be. Seems to me my son and brother-in-law went swimming or put their toes in Lake Michigan one winter.... or maybe not. They were up in Manestique so maybe even colder? Have fun and enjoy relaxing. Your embroidered towels are really cute.
ReplyDeleteHand work is perfect for vacation. Looks like a beautiful view. Enjoy your vacation!
ReplyDeleteHello from the other side of the lake! Where are you staying this week?
ReplyDeleteGreat view! Red work pieces are beautiful. Love them..
ReplyDeleteHi Judy, that is a gorgeous beach but I'm sure that the water must be very cold! Those utensils are so cute and with only one colour of floss, it makes it so much easier to pack! Enjoy.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great spot for a vacation and those towels are just adorable! (Jennifer in Indy)
