I love making stuff. I love practicing making stuff. I love it when I practice making stuff so much that it comes out good enough to give as a gift. That’s when a homemade gift, is the best gift.
I came across this website that archived embroidery patterns from the late 1800’s. Being that monograms are so chic right now, I thought it would make a great holiday gift for my family and friends. I put my poor, water painting skills to the test, but I was very happy with my end result.

Can you share the website where you found the monogram patterns? Thanks!
Those are beautiful! Can you share the source for the pattern? I am a local cookie designer and I would love to incorporate them in my work! I just LOVE your blog!
Here you go ladies!
