I have recently discovered Doodle Stitching. What is Doodle stitching, you ask? It is this:
This book is so awesome! If you want to learn to stitch original pieces and a the same time not feel like an old maid, you should get this book! It has the cutest patterns or "motifs" as the author calls them. My favorite thing about this book is that there are so many options to choose from that you can combine to make something your very own. It has inspired me, to say the least.
I have already made two gifts because of being inspired by this book
One was for Kelly. Well, its for Baby Wecker's room. I actually started this project before I even received the above book in the mail, but the cover inspired me so much, I had to start right away. As soon as I imagined this in my head, I knew it had to be for Kelly. Its totally her!

The second gift that I made is for Emily. I wanted to make something for her that she could put up in her house. This is what I came up with:
It has been so fun making these projects for my sisters. I have a lot more ideas so there will be more posts like this to come. I just love the freedom that stitching gives me. I can pick up some fabric, some thread and make something so fun!
I hope you both like your gifts!!! :)
