Ever since I was a little girl, I remember all women in my family sewing, knittings, crocheting and cross-stitching. My mom, Elsa, always joked about one day retiring and making it in cross-stitching world.
She is 71 now and here is what her retirement has brought to life:
Each of these cross-stiched pictures has taken her up to 4 months to complete.

All this work is for sale, however, I should get her to open an Etsy shop- I am sure these pictures worth buying.
There is much more photos on her Facebook Page- please have a look.
I am so eternally proud of my mom, isn't she a darling?

Wow is that cross-stitching, didn't realise they could look so dense, I don't know much about it. They are so beautiful, that is a skill I want to learn next too.
ReplyDeleteit is amazing work!!! She should sell some of them
ReplyDeleteWow that first one is truly amazing...she should definitely open up an Etsy shop.
ReplyDeleteI agree, but she lives in a different country and it seems to be too complicated for her she is 71 after all:-) we are working on it
ReplyDeleteI know how it is, I'm trying to get my mom to start a blog (she quilts). Some day!
ReplyDeleteSee blogging is like writing a diary, not everyone is into it.
