Sweet Letter Stitching

Olá! After writing last week about letter stitching I remembered that I had a treasure at home... Last year my youngest daughter made this embroidered notebook as an anniversary gift to dad.

She didn't use a word processor... She doesn't need it. Her small hands and talent are enough. She's not like her mother...

All by herself she used an old pair of jeans, white paper, orange Bristol board and cotton thread. The pattern is hers, as are all the the stitches and finishing details...

I love the personality of her stitches. Comparing with other previous works we easily identify a "stitching identity" (does it exist??) and she's only 9 years old...

Ok... Maybe I'm exaggerating. But what would you expect from the mother's artist?

Do you know what "PAI" means? It's the Portuguese word for dad or father...

Here in Portugal will be celebrating father's day on the 19th March... It's coming soon...
