Beginner's Guide for Embroidery onto Clothing Christmas is nearing very fast, and we know a lot of you will be wanting to add that extra 'festive touch' to your wardrobe. Our 'Beginner's Guide for Embroidery onto Clothing' is a great way to learn all about the process of stitching onto clothing (and accessories).

How adorable are these 'Festive Friends' stitched onto napkins by our member Tammy? We just love the pop of colour these sweaters bring. What lovely inspiration to get stitching this Christmas! What's inspiring me on the creative front... Since we are on the theme of embroidery onto clothing, I thought I'd share this beautiful floral embroidered winter coat by embroidery artist Jenny of @flynn_and_mabel. I have been following Jenny and her inspiring designs for awhile now, and I would say she is definitely the queen of embroidery onto clothing! Her style is all about stitching fun and floral designs onto the likes of denim, canvas shoes, hats, bags, even phone cases! I reckon she could literally stitch onto anything hehe.

This post from @amyweatherly popped up on my feed recently and it was a great reminder coming into gift buying season. In this day and age, it can be so easy for parents to get caught up and feel pressured to have all the latest and greatest gadgets for your kids. The words in this post really puts things into perspective and makes you realise what's really important. With the cost of living having risen so much in the last couple of years, I think it's way better to embrace making memories for your kids instead of worrying about the material things!   In our world...

It makes me smile when I think about how much joy all of these kits and supplies will bring over the coming months.   Over the weekend, Piper had a dance production which we all went to watch.
