[WIP] Cross Stitch as Therapy!
Sorry for the wrinkles! Saw this beautiful piece on the sub last summer when I was pregnant and decided to stitch for my baby’s nursery. It’s from Emma Condon’s book “Cross Stitch for the Earth”.
Unfortunately, my little one has some challenges and has been in the NICU since birth. Stitching this has helped keep me (semi) sane during 10-hour days at the hospital these last two months. I’ve also learned that 50% of the nurses here either cross stitch or embroider!
We’re hoping to bring baby home in April, and I want to finish this before we leave. As beautiful as it piece is, I’m not sure I want to put it up in her room anymore - too many feels. The NICU here has a ton of hand made art, and I’m thinking of donating the piece once it’s done.
