Embroidery: Clean Your Beans

I hadn’t done any embroidery since my early childhood, when I dabbled in cross-stitch, and this year I decided to sign up for the Year of Stitch series of tutorials and samplers from Badass Cross Stitch. It’s been a great way to get gently back into embroidery, and I’ve been having great fun messing around with thread and stabbing fabric.

This is my first fully finished “real” (i.e. not a sampler) embroidery project, done with a kit from The Flossy Feline.
