Hi! I hope your Labour Day was great (if you’re in North America). One of my core memories as a kid was that of my Mom sewing. She was a gifted seamstress, and had that as a job full time or part time throughout her life. I can’t tell you how many garments she sewed for me or for our kids over the years. She was so gifted at it. I remember her teaching me and her favourite phrase was “rip it out”. It always mattered to her that I did it right. She was always dressed beautifully and almost always something she had sewn.
So this cute design is in honour of her. It uses a new digi set from TCP called One Stitch. It features all kinds of textile arts, embroider, crochet, knitting and sewing. I coloured the image up with Copics, with some coloured pencil blending added.
I used a lot of fun colours to coordinate with this pretty plaid paper, and added little stitching themed dies and buttons from retired TCP dies. She’s definitely got her fashion on!
And, just like my Mom - a “you’re amazing” sentiment. She truly was, and I miss her greatly! Glad to have a sweet memory of her to celebrate with you today!
