Home Sweet Home 💙🏡
.
Creating pattern samples is the best part of what I do. This one was fun to stitch and was a very welcome distraction from what's going on.
.
This will be next week's FREE pattern going out in my newsletter on the 1st April. If you would like to receive the newsletter then please hit the link in my bio. 🙂

Well how's it going for everyone today? .
I hope you're all well and not too freaked out by what's happening in the world at the moment.
.
Here in the UK we are going through a partial lockdown so we're all in doors keeping busy with chores and home schooling etc.
.
I've been playing around with this little house design. I wonder where the idea to create a home embroidery came from 🤔
.
I have loads of other things I should be doing but at this moment all I want to do is switch off the outside world and become absorbed in stitching.
.
Here's hoping and praying that this virus can be controlled soon and that we can all get back to normal but I have to say, it's certainly making me think about how I live my life and possibly how I would like to change a few things. Anyone else thinking the same?

Happy Valentine's Day ❤
I hope you're all feeling loved today.

I think it's safe to say that Drop the Weasel likes to send out the love from time to time. Here's a few past creations with the last two bringing us right up to date.

Much love
Lizzie

It's all about the detail this morning. These roses have been embroidered using satin stitch. It's a stitch that takes time and uses up a fair bit of thread but it's so lovely to have blocks of coloured thread on the fabric. .
I loved stitching this design. As any embroiderer will tell you, stitching by hand is a wonderful way to slow down, relax and focus. The repetitive nature of creating each stitch really is calming.

Thank you so much for your thoughts on my last post. This design (A) has come out tops by a landslide on my Facebook page and Instagram so this will be the pattern template used for my PDF pattern.

Thank you so much for taking the time to comment and give me your thoughts. I prefer design A too 🙂
