There’s a healing that happens when we read, write and embroider; words, meanings and memories become stitched into our souls and we understand their significance, why they resonate with us, why they have stayed with us. In the quiet moments of embroidery we listen to the whispers from the tender, hidden parts of our hearts and we understand ourselves more.
You will create your own pair of pot holders or coffee mug rugs or plant pot mats, it's up to you how you will use your gorgeous weaving.
