Vive La France! Bastille Day and a little Eiffel Tower revisit

The 14th of July is Bastille Day in France which is a fantastic time to revisit our little Tour Eiffel embroidery from our book 'Craft It Up Around The World'. You don't need any embroidery experience to make this gorgeous souvenir of Paris. We used a scrap of fabric and a running stitch. 

We've left it in the hoop and it takes pride of place in the Craft It Up studio. You could use it on a patch pocket, or part of a quilt. It would also look great on a napkin or table runner too. 

We're thinking of doing an embroidery city series. Big Ben would look perfect in a hoop, as would The Golden Gate Bridge and the Statue of Liberty. 

But for now, Vive La France!



'Craft It Up Around The World' is available online or you can order it in bookstores.
