A wife of noble character who can find? She is worth far more than rubies. Her husband has full confidence in her and lacks nothing of value. Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised.

-Proverbs 31:10-11,30

Hand Sewn Bows

I hate hand sewing. Like... I loath hand sewing. I have so man almost-finished projects because I just don't want to sit down and sew the last little bit by hand.

I had a conversation recently with a friend, though, about hand sewing. She told me that she prefers it! I died a little inside. And then I was inspired.

So, this summer I have been attempting to increase my hand sewing skills. Everything from basic stitching to embroidery.  This is the first thing I made


Bows.


Lots and lots of bows.


Now, I don't really like bows.
But they're easy, and I have actually used them to accessorize a little bit.





Now I just need some cute little girl to give them to. : )

    These are so cute! Someday I want to make some for my daughter (well, when she has more hair to actually clip them into haha)
