Embroidery 101
As part of my pursuit of craftiness for this year, I vowed to decipher embroidery. Crochet is on that list too but I fear that particular skill may never be decoded. After 6 months of attempting crochet, I've mastered exactly one stitch. Said stitch only works to a point. Once it's time to turn around, I've been outplayed. However, after an hour on the computer this evening and some new embroidery floss in pretty colors, I've seemingly mastered 4 stitches. I'm not much of a mathematician but the stats seem to show that embroidery is way more time-efficient.
There are some super cute things on Etsy embroidered and I'd like to make it to that point. But what I really want is a super adorable granny square blanket. Somehow I just don't think embroidery is going to get me there...But on the upside yay for learning how to sew! I'm a little closer to being the Suzy Homemaker that I've never been : )
