A Little White on White
Clara and I are about to put together our next quilt top, which involves quite a few words (from the Bible, and having to do with ravens). She is an embroidering machine! But I don't mean that literally, since she does it all by hand.
Ah, white on white embroidery. Lovely. I have pillow cases which my grandmother embroidered in that style. Great to see Clara keeping this tradition alive.
I love that you are doing these projects together as a mother and a daughter.

ReplyDeleteBeautiful work,can't wait to see the complete project! Christina
ReplyDeleteI would love to try that, but my handwriting is terrible. I don't suppose embroidering it would look any better.

I suspect it will be beautiful, if this snippet is anything to go by! Hope to see the full project eventually!
ReplyDeleteI think our Creator knocked the talented jar over spilling it into His batch of Clara. My goodness that woman has skills. So beautiful!
