NEW THIS WEEK:

Making it personalHeirlooms and Monograms

Many of us learned to love the look of embroidery when we inherited a dresser scarf, a handkerchief, or a quilt, that was lovingly crafted so painstakingly by our ancestors. Perhaps we received one of these treasures on a wedding day or birthday, and with the gift, a family story, both handed down from generation to generation.

Heirloom embroidery connects us to a past when people embroidered to preserve memories of special occasions. And, gratefully, we find we can continue the tradition, creating elegant gifts of embroidery, but now in a fraction of the time our grandmothers did.

This week's designs offer heirloom stitchery that reflects traditional patterns of centuries-old needle arts. Dainty butterflies, graceful vines, and romantic roses in the soft look of heirloom designs, will have you creating your own heirloom gifts on fine linens, silks, or cottons. Vintage designs, so elegant for linens, are also fun for camisoles, night gowns, and other lingerie; beautiful on babies' christening gowns; and charming for young girls' pinafores, party dresses, collars, and yokes. You'll also find new quilt packs that apply the delicate, elegant style to quilt blocks, labels, corners, borders, and stipples to bring the classic feel to bed linens.

Monograms are a classic look with modern, fashionable appeal. A new Floral Heirloom alphabet combines the delicate, flowery style of heirloom embroidery with letters so that you can apply the style to towels, totes, linens, and more. Enjoy the new designs!


Classic Forms in Heirloom Tradition
Whether you choose bright cheery colors for the kitchen, tone-on-tone for the bedroom, or subtle pastels for lingerie, these heirloom designs convey an elegance that is timeless. Traditional floral patterns, such as a fan, circle, spray, arch, and basket, can be used singly or in pleasing combinations.

Heirloom Roses
Roses are for rhapsody and romance, and this Victorian rose design reminds us of both.
