Sometimes the Smallest Things Take Up the Most Room in Your Heart: A Pooh Hanging for Gifting

Hello, folks! This is Jennifer Ingle here with you today, and I am so excited to be sharing a super fun (and rather simple) stitching project using the Stitched Classic Pooh Collection. If you are a Winnie the Pooh die-hard, you may have recognized that quote in my title. It holds so much truth. Sometimes a small handmade gift can say so very much to your recipient. That is why I created this adorable hanging.

I stitched two of the Pooh character to add to my hanging. You can see I chose to not add stuffing, but if you wanted to, you could totally make his belly a bit chubby with a touch of fluff. A couple of buttons and the blanket stitch add to that homemade feel that is just perfect for hanging in the room of a brand new baby.

While I did stitch the main pieces, I used fabric glue to secure some of the details and smaller bits like the bees. This allows for some thick layers and a great finished look.

Naturally, I couldn’t just leave it at the handmade gift. I simply had to add a matching custom card. I love that these stitching dies do not include the holes. It allows you to not only use any stitching techniques you choose, but it also means you can use them for paper crafting seamlessly. A foiled sentiment finishes off the simple design perfectly.

Thank you so much for joining me today. This was a really fun project, and I hope you are inspired to give these stitching dies a try. Make it work for whatever level of fabric crafter you are! Have a crafty day!
