“Several months ago, I got these wool fluorescent colors .
I thought it might be fun to make some postal embroidery with the children to mail to some family and friends. A way for us to say goodbye to the summer.
First I made some drawings with beach motifs, in a form of post cards.
Then, I punched little holes along the pencil lines with a fat needle to start sewing. We chose the colors and the children got to “work” …
Pretty post cards for our special friends and family to receive in their letterboxes. Hopefully arrive safely at your destination :)
How cute is this idea! I would almost die of happiness to get one of these little cuties in the letterbox… how about you?
Thanks once again, Ingrid, for sharing your sweet ideas with us :-)
