Pinterest Project #1 Complete!

Surprisingly, I had kind of a hard time getting the supplies for this project. Hawaii is an interesting place. Luckily it all came together!

I like these little sheep!

I decided to make my little sheep into a book mark. See this post for my inspiration.


Embroidery is not my strong suit. But with I slowly got the hang of it.


I chose a nice soft rosey linen for the back


And a little grograin to stick out the top!


Im so glad I tried this project. These sheep arent 100% perfect, but I still think they are cute :) I want to improve my french knots and maybe one day work on a more ambitious embroidery project!

Also, can I recommend this book that is modeling the bookmark?
The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie by Alan Bradley
I LOVE this book, its a series. Check it out. Its fun, cute, hilarious, and charming.

Check back next week for another Pinterest Project!
