Disney Love
As children, my sister and I grew up going to Disneyland. A lot. Our grandparents bought annual passes for us and Disneyland is where we spent time on weekends, after school and summer days. When we look back on our childhood, we think of Disneyland- if not the simple, innocent magic of all things Disney- as a dear childhood friend. It isn't often that I meet someone, as an adult, who shares this experience and unique Disney fondness, so when I do we find a special kinship.
on the website dailyembroidery.com. I know myself well enough to know that I am no match for embroidery, so I adapted a bit. I saved the image to my computer and enlarged it a bit. Then, I placed a piece of parchment paper over the screen and traced the outline of the image. Next, I pinned the parchment paper "pattern" to a piece of scrap fabric and stitched embroidery floss directly over the pattern.
When the stitching was complete, I simply- gently- tore away the parchment paper. I found a frame at Hobby Lobby that couldn't have been better suited for this project! The frame looks to me like something that would be in Mickey or Minnie's home in Toon Town in Disneyland!
