I found this special book at a local church charity shop. It talks about planting a seed and watching it grow. The illustrations are soft and delicate. A bit of a watercolor look. Thought you all might enjoy the progression of little Jerry's garden over the next week. The little seeds that grew.
As I venture through these patterns I realize they are not just stitching patterns but patterns as well. A sweet giraffe.

Don't forget his little ears in the first image. I left the bottom of the foot so you could see where to line it up.

Directions so small you might need a microscope to read them?

These last few I kept the nearby images on the sheet. I love all the extras that they fill the pages with.
This poor donkey looks a little angry.

We must all stop and smell the daisies.

I don't think I would mind having a saddle full of flowers either.

Oh I love giraffes! What cute images. You always find the cutest stuff, Renee. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI was so surprised when reading your blog to find you are young! I thought people who were interested in all these cute things were my age. I love reading your blogs.
ReplyDeleteYes, I don't know where you find all these cute patterns, but I'm so glad that you do!
ReplyDeleteThanks for another cute one!
What a wonderful find, Renee! Don't you always wonder how people can part with these sweet vintage books? I'm always really glad they do, though!
ReplyDeleteWishing you a wonderful night, dear friend...

ReplyDeleteThose flowers add the perfect touch to those cute patterns.
ReplyDeleteThe little saddle full of flowers is so cute and you are a sweetie to share the way you do. Now if I could only find the time to do all the things on my want-to list!

ReplyDeleteThe giraffe is so cute and I love the donkeys, too! Thanks for going to the trouble to share with us! You're always so sweet!
ReplyDeleteSuper cute little stuffed animal patterns! And this is the year to have donkey embroidered patterns... now if you can just find some elephants too, that would be perfect. Seriously, don't you think those would sell like hotcakes in your etsy shops during an election year?
ReplyDeleteThere you go again, my sweet friend! What fun it will be stitching up this precious little donkey! It's been a while since I have done any hand embroidery, but, now that my 90 year old Mom has picked it up again...I plan on spending some quality time with her...stitching away!
ReplyDeleteThank you, dear!
Blessings,
