Embroidery Upcycling Inspiration

Oh my!  I'm simply in love with this beautiful Evergreen Bonnet by Rose Lewis.  

Rose's grandmother taught her how to embroider, and this special piece was stitched by her grandmother in intricate Bullion Stitch

Embroidered Evergreen Baby Bonnet

This never-finished cushion cover was beautifully upcycled into a stunning wee bonnet.  Sewn into the tiniest size for precious newborn photos.

Using such small amounts of fabric, the Evergreen Bonnet presents wonderful opportunities for upcycing precious materials; and the resulting super-sweet wee bonnet is perfect as a baby keepsake too.

Oh how sweet my little girl would have been in this as a newborn - I will simply have to make her a pretty 5 year old version instead!
