This is my very first attempt at stitching!I was in Year 2 at school, and a lovely lady fondly called "Morgy" came in to teach our class to stitch. She was actually one of my good friend's nanny/housekeeper, and such a patient woman :)
Here is the full piece in all it's glory :) Love how I've started and finished with a big knot, right on the front of my fabric...yikes!So this is where my love of embroidery began...in a classroom in Year 2. Do you still have your first piece of stitching? I'd love to see a pic ;)

That's so sweet! I actually love the colors and all the fun stitches. You were a great stitcher from day one!
I remember my first stitching project. We (girl scouts) each drew a picture and then stitched it on burlap. My picture was a girl (with two braids, like mine) riding a horse. I was into drawing that at the time. I wonder what ever happened to that stitchwork...

Wow! Knots or no knots, your stitches are still perfect! You're a natural! This tea towel is so cute, thanks for sharing.
Oh wow, that is a treasure!! My Mum has mine, I will have to take a pic when I am at her house next. It was a piece of checked material and we cross stitched a border aroung the edge. I know that was in primary school, but I don't remember exactly what year.
Ah memories...I think we all did one of these...thankyou for sharing yours!
I love this story and I love your first stitchery. Thanks for sharing
love me :-)
I remember stitchiing on this type of cloth! Isn't it fun how everything comes back into style after about 3p years? LOVE It!
Stop by my blog when you have a chance. I 'm having a little giveaway.
look how perfect it is and in grade two as well, mine is not that good now. I couldn't even tell you what my first stitched thing was let alone show you.
