Something cute!

when matty presented me with a drawing of a rat made in yellow felt pen on the back of some stickers paper, I just had to find a way to preserve it, with its fresh simple lines and very ratty nose ...



so I traced the image using the trusty window as a light box, onto some lovely vintage linen ... and carefully followed the design in back-stitch ...



I know I am not the first person to work with their children's drawings like this, but I had to have a go, as hubby was watching one of those Jimmy Stewart Movies!

How perfect! I hope she is excited to see it when she gets older.....

kids little art things are pretty darn amazing and it would be great if more articles survived enough years for them to appreciate it too...
