A small get well gift for a stitching quilting or crafting friend.
I was searching my brain for a low-cost non-food gifty something that I could give/make for a crafty friend who was in the hospital for surgery. Since she's a quilter and stitcher, I came up with this idea.
I traced a stitching pattern on white fabric, included an embroidery needle and a skein of red floss. I made a long home made envelope so I wouldn't have to put too many creases in the fabric. I put lots of Get Well writing on the envelope and dropped it off to her daughter to bring to her in the hospital. That was a week ago.. I just got word back that she loved it and is working on it 15 or 20 minutes at a time. It is a nice distraction from her medical troubles. She shows everyone who comes to visit!.. I'm so pleased that she is enjoying it.
The photo shows the faint marked stitching lines of the Meg Hawley 2002 pattern called "Snow"..
