Mermaid Hand Embroidered Pillow Cases...

I finally finished the mermaids! I bought the percale pillow cases with the blue waves already finished on the edges so I could embroider the little mermaids on them as a set.

It took me longer than I thought it would to finish them. Something always got in the way. But... Now they are done, washed and starched. Woo Hoo! Another finish...

ps.) I forgot to mention. These are from an aunt martha's pattern.

Adorable. I still have some of my pillow cases my Mom did for me when I was a little girl. Thanks for sharing.

Wonderful!! Your work is lovely and I think pillowcases like these are so timeless. The blue waves couldn't have worked out any better for the mermaids, either! I cherish the ones my mother made for me.
