Bothy and Haed WIP by my daughter

Post by lucyloo34 »

My daughter Ellie who is 12 years old has been working on these pieces, Bothy 'Beside the seaside' and Haed 'Faces of Faery 177' I'm very impressed with her particularly for tackling a Haed, she's really enjoying it I've been coming downstairs at seven in the morning to find her sat there stitching before school, she's definately got the bug! :D

Ah bless her, she's doing so well, especially tackling a HAED!

I love that you find her stitching before school, you must be really proud of her.

She's made lots of progress already, and can't wait to see her travel further along with the designs :)

:applesauce: How wonderful that she has discovered stitching at such an early age. And definitely is doing a fantastic job of it. I hope she sticks with it. Sounds as if she is hooked.
