Handprints

Just wanted to share this with you.  I got the idea from another blog but instead of sewing the hand print onto a quilt I thought it would be really nice to have it like a picture in a frame.  I'm going to do one every year and put them up in his room.  I did start by doing hand prints onto stones with paint but the chunky monkey has got too big!

I'm just getting to grips with my new embroidery foot on my sewing machine so the writing is a bit squiffy but hey, it's rustic!




Would be a lovely gift idea to use the child's first babygro or favourite t-shirt for the fabric.

  1. love this idea.
    Love childrens handprints.
    I used to draw around my sons hands each year and cut out of thick card.
    Second son wasn't as placid baby so i missed out this time.
