How did you learn to sew? For me, I was about eight years old when I first picked up a needle and thread. Embroidery was my first love and I almost always have a project by my sitting chair. I was also fortunate to inherit a lot of transfers from my grandmothers. This year I am determined to get things out of storage and use them or lose them so I thought I would share some of my transfers each Tuesday. This week I am just scanning them and sharing them as is; next week, when I am not down and out with a cold, I'll try to share cleaner pictures. Let me know if you enjoy them!
This is my project for this year, I'd like to finish a block a month:

My first experience was sitting on my great grandmother's knee. I was about 3 or 4 and she let me embroider, I still have the piece and can remember how exciting it was!
ADORABLE!!! Love the baby. I started with a quilt, when I was 20...saw one in a magazine I liked, asked a few questions, and dove right in. I still use it and it's one of my faves! But when I discovered redwork....oh my....LOVE at first sight. I collect vintage patterns too, unfortunately nobody in my family handed any down!!
These are adorable Mickie... so good to hear about the babies too...
