After my obsession with crewelwork the other week, I’ve been spending more time trolling Etsy looking for modern embroidery and needlepoint. I’m always a fan of Chez Sucre Chez cross-stitch work, so I was happy to see some new designs as well as some adorable reusable produce bags. They’re meant to replace the green/clear plastic bags you use at the store to gather fruits and veggies and definitely look a lot nicer. In addition to the bags, I love the cloud cross-stitch collection and the kits that create lace-inspired cross-stitch pieces. Those would be so sweet in a grouping on a wall. Click here to check out the full series and shop online. My plan is to save up and have some custom floral pieces (like the one at the top) made in honor of various state flowers. I’d love to do a small collection to honor the places that mean something to me. xo, grace

I love her work…the custom pieces she did for our nursery are so treasured!
These are always a classic for the states.

I love them–one day I will get a whole quilt finished, but for now they are pillows on my bed. The state I grew up in and the one place I dream of living. Glad to see more interest in hand work–I think it is coming back strong!
The cloud designs are lovely!
These are beautiful! Especially love her cloud series. I recently started adding custom embroidery pieces to my shop and am so happy creating them…there’s something so calming about hand embroidery!
