It happens that I really want to capture an important moment in life for years. But it does not always come to mind how best to do this.
One option is to print photos for the album. The second option is to transfer to the canvas, paint a picture. There is another option - embroider on fabric and framed. Each of these options will retain memories for a long time.
Consider the latter in more detail. A piece of fabric or canvas, floss thread (or others for embroidery), a needle, a hoop, scissors, a little patience and time are the main components of your future work.
Today cross-stitch metrics according to patterns is a very relevant and valuable gift. He is expensive in that he will keep the memory of an important date in life. One such event is the birth of a child in the family.
Who was taken from the hospital
Every mother for many years remembers the moment of the birth of a new man, her child. In the hospital, a tag is immediately attached to the hand with all the information: name, date of birth, height and weight. This is the very first information about a newborn. Many then make albums where they put the first hospital metric, the first photo, make casts of their hands and feet.
The embroidered metric will also be a pleasant reminder of everything that happened. Such a picture is usually depicted: baby's name, date and time of birth, height, weight. It can be supplemented with the names of father and mother.
Images for girls
When a girl is born, in the family she becomes the main princess. The first associations with the newborn were in a pink dress, with a bow on her head, a doll in her hands.
Therefore, pink tones are mainly used in the pattern of cross stitch metrics for girls. Images are chosen to your taste:
- canopy cradle with lace;
- booties with bows;
- cubs, kittens or other animals;
- girl angels
- stork with an envelope from the hospital;
- dolls or girls.
Images for boys
If you turn to the Internet, you can see that the patterns for cross stitch metrics for boys, in contrast to girls, use mainly blue and blue colors.
The theme of the image is still the same: a sleeping baby with a bear, a stroller, a flying stork. Alternatively, you can use images of boyish toys:
- cars;
- construction equipment (excavators, trucks, cranes);
- robots;
- balls;
- baby with toys.
It remains only to choose how to assemble the desired image into one.
And if more than one
It may happen that a newly mum has twins or triplets (or even more). Then the worries will increase, but so will the joys. What to do in this case?
The first option is to make individual metrics for each child.
In the second version, on the cross stitch pattern, children's metrics are combined into one. If they are twins, then depict two cubs, two storks, two strollers, two portraits.
May you live happily ever after
The most solemn and festive event in people's lives is a wedding. The union of two people by marriage, the formation of a new unit of society - the family. No wonder preparing for this great day takes weeks, or even months. Therefore, one of the most memorable gifts on such a date will be a wedding metric. Cross stitch patterns can be picked up on the Internet or created independently.
What can be depicted
In such a picture, the presence of the names of the spouses and the date of a significant event will be standard. The rest is done at the discretion of the embroidering or ordering metric:
- two connected wedding rings;
- hearts symbolizing lovers;
- pigeons;
- swans
- bouquets of flowers or floral ornaments;
- silhouettes designating the bride and groom (their images look funny in the style of children or animals);
- a slightly more difficult option might be a portrait of a young couple.
In any case, each cross stitch pattern, as a metric, is always unique and original in its own way.
