Description:
Post a link to your Pinterest embroidery board in the comments below. (Make sure your Pinterest board includes at least 10 pins.) When swap partners are assigned, visit your partner's Pinterest board and create an embroidered square inspired by their pins. You can select one of their pins and stitch it exactly or you can design something similar. Embroider on a 6" x 6" (15.25 x 15.25 cm), 100% cotton piece of fabric (not cross stitch fabric), leaving at least a 1/4" seam allowance (unstitched border around the edges). Include your name or Swap-Bot name and date somewhere on the square (except in the margin) -- embroidery or water-proof ink. Ask questions of your partner or swap host if necessary. Have fun and be creative!

I would love to do this only with Cross stitch.

I have not been able to master the dark art of posting links, despite endless attempts, otherwise I would join...

I think there are all levels of embroidery on this. Just remember that if it's in a hoop, I'll love it!

I haven't embroidered since I was a little girl, but this looks like a whole lot of fun! :D

I love this swap, but the deadline is a little to tight for me!
