In Stitches


There is something so sweetly homegrown and old-fashioned about embroidery. These pieces have that same charm but with a modern spin. I love the use of fabric swatches and bold colors and the oh so very hipster vibe each one captures. Plus, the name of the shop is Cheese Before Bedtime, which could also be the name of my autobiography.

    1. These photos are from the artist's Etsy shop. I wish I knew the name of it too!

  7. Thanks for the feature Natalie! Now... must stop blog surfing and get stitching! PS: I think the nailpolish is OPI 'Chilli'.
