Etsy Find: Stitched Handprint

2009-08-19-somethingsewn.jpg

Capturing the precious-time of babyhood via a handprint or footprint is popular with parents. If you like the idea but want to step it up a notch check out these Stitched Handprints.

 
 

Ohdeedoh Reader Jenn (of Chatter blog) wrote to tell us about these handprints she recently purchased from Etsy seller Something Sewn. She embroiders your child's name, age and replica of your child's handprint onto white broadcloth. Each fits an 8 x 10 frame. Such custom detail for only $16. See her Etsy site here.

This reminds me of a similar project my grandmother started and which I have somewhat kept up with.

She had a simple white tablecloth and every time a guest would come for dinner, she would have the guest sign the tablecloth; the signature was ultimately embroidered.

It is such a lovely memento of names and memories that I used it as the chuppa at my wedding.
