Last week I auditioned over at So You Think You're Crafty, and I am happy to announce that I am one of 10 crafters competing in Season 9! Take a minute and hop over there to see what it's all about!
This is what I submitted for my audition :)
With four daughters who seem to be constantly drawing and painting, I'm always looking for ways to display as well as
preserve their work.
I traced an amazing drawing Livie made (we all think our childrens drawings are amazing, don't we?) onto soft white cotton and hand stitched the image with embroidery floss. I sewed on a border and backing of colorful Amy Butler fabric, and slipped it over a fluffy down pillow form.
Now her pretty picture can sit on the porch swing, on the couch or bed.
I love adding touches like this to our home, they give it life, and a whimsical personality that's all our own!
