Embroidered napkins for your Valentine love

January has been a busy month and besides all the work, I also got sick. I guess it all comes together. On the positive side: I found my crafting mojo again! It’s been hiding. But I knew if Valentine can’t tickle it, nothing will. That’s always the holiday I get moth inspired with.

I created a few projects already and the first one I want to share with you is this I made for Alpenwelt Magazin: embroidered napkins.

You might notice that I like to declare my love but always with a cheekiness that doesn’t make it too serious but still lovely. So for this project, I created those two designs:

1. “Ich mag dich mehr als Kuchen” – which translates into “I like you more than cake”.
2. “Ich liebe dich” – which means “I love you” but with a cup underneath that leaves open if I mean my partner or the coffee. Might depend on the day.

There’s a template for these quotes included as free download.

You might have seen on Pinterest that I love embroidery and I wanted to do a project for way too long. There might be a few more coming up. So this is your official warning. However I’m not a pro, so all tutorials are beginner friendly as well.

Just like this one. Just follow the instructions and I even made a pictogram on how to stitch. Go here to see the full tutorial (in German).

Now. Carry on!
