Months and months ago I bought this tiny embroidery hoop from Dandelyne on Etsy.
I was really excited but like so many other times I buy cool things, I get nervous to use them. I feel like I’m not going to come up with a good enough project to do them justice. I finally decided I just needed to stitch something up for this hoop so I can make it into a necklace.
I stitched up a couple possible designs and I can’t decide. I’ve ruled out the spider, (though Evie requested I make it into a necklace for her) so it’s between the bird and the flower. I’m leaning towards the flower, but I’m not 100% sold on it.

I love all three of them! The bird, though, I think would look cutest as a necklace. 🙂
Jackie says
Definitely the bird! Love it!
jeanne e. says
all three are cute…but i think i would go with the flower. 🙂
Mad says
I love the spider!
I prefer the bird between the two of them as a necklace, but the flower might go with more outfits?
Becca says
That was my ultimate deciding factor. The flower seemed more appropriate for more occasions!
Kathi says
All cute but I’m lovin’ the flower!
Andrea Shepherd (The Girl in the Lane) says
I think the bird but that is a good point about the flower going with more.
Kati says
The bird is the cutest!

THE SPIDER!!!!

I’d go with the bird! But I’ll be the first to admit I’m on a bit of a bird kick. . . 🙂
Becca says
I do love birds but I went with the flower. I’m going to make a button with the bird though and keep it on my bag!
Kim D says
The flower seems a bit more classic, and I wear tons of black, so I am biased. Will love to see either when it’s done, though! I have some of those too and a similar problem with committing. How are you planning on finishing the back?
Becca says
The hoop is designed really well so the back is covered. I wear a lot of black too and I like the pop of color the flower gives.

I adore those tiny hoops, and the only reason I haven’t ordered any yet is the very same you mention–worry about how to do it justice! LOL. Completely identify with that. If I HAD to choose just one, I’d go flower, but they really all three are lovely and would make great necklaces. 🙂
Becca says
I am glad I went with the flower for the necklace, I think I’ll wear it most. The other two will be pins I think. I posted about how to finish the back of them today!
existitchialism says
Oh, and I second the question–How will you finish the back? Very curious.

I would choose the bird 🙂
