I had a little epiphany yesterday as I was working on scanning my old vintage embroidery patterns to share on the site. This particular pretty pattern of water lilies simply wouldn’t clean up well in either Illustrator or Photoshop. I finally resigned myself to the fact that if I was going to get a good looking copy of it, I’d have to redraw it by hand – so I did.

And guess what? I LOVED it. As in, immediately found another embroidery design to redraw, and spent the rest of the evening thinking about coming up with my own embroidery patterns.

That’s a scary thought – I need another project like I need another hole in my head. But I might toy with the idea for a while… so if this is something you are interested in, you’d better speak up now or I might not ever do it. 🙂
