Mother’s Day cards

Filed under: Embroidery — Suzical @ 6:24 pm

Don’t forget it’s Mother’s Day here in the UK this Sunday!

My Mum and future Mother-in-law will be getting lovely Paperchase cards this year.. I have 75 more wedding invites to make and a scarf to knit, so am afraid for me it fell by the wayside. My colleague’s Mum and Mum-in-law will be getting Suzical cards, however - Sarah liked the Mole card so much she asked me to make some more..

A hyacinth for her mother-in-law (as her name means Hyacinth in french!) hyacinth.jpg

and a daffodil for Sarah’s mum: daffodil.jpg

Which I particularly proud of as my drawing is not the best! :-)

We have D’s Mum visiting for the weekend and are all going up to my sister’s for dinner on Sunday - to see my parents and Judith’s in-laws as well. Happy Mother’s Day to all you great Mum’s - hope you’re spoilt this weekend!

  1. The daffodil is very leaflike: I’m always amazed at how a few carefully drawn lines can look so realistic (well carefully sewn lines!)
