Day five is ‘Repeat!’ because you can’t make just one
These two finished magnets are going to be mailed to Melanie and Kelly for suggested these mottoes. Thank for sharing your words to live by and for following along to our first digital craft tutorial! This series of embroidery tutorials was inspired by Victorian motto samplers in the museum’s collection.
Share your pictures of your modern motto samplers and tag us on facebook or instagram – we’d love to see them!
Here are a few more photos from start to finish:
