Sweet stitches

Olá! This week I have special stitches to show you... Very sweet stitches...
I believe they have a Portuguese soul once they were made by very little hands belonging to a 9 years old Portuguese child.

The last two weeks I was out of town, working far away from home... (Sorry for not posting last Thursday...)

Yesterday, when I arrived, I had this surprise waiting for me! My youngest daughter made this piece of embroidery by herself... The drawing is hers... Stitched by her little hands... I can assure I was not there to help her!

Ice cream and Cupcake made by my daughter

Chocolate and lollipop made by my daughter

Ice cream and lollipop made by my daughter

I'm so proud that I couldn't resist to publish her work... I hope you like it!!

For our Portuguese class I've chosen two great words... Mother and daughter - "mãe" and "filha".

Wish you all a sweet week!

So sweet... (made by my daughter)

    That is wonderful!  I love the way she incorporated the buttons and wasn't afraid to use lots of color. These kinds of gifts are my favorite!!!
