Etsy Craft Party 2014 - Bring new meaning to old photographs
Every year, in June, Etsy celebrates it's birthday with themed craft parties, which are hosted by etsy teams, all over the world.
This year, craft party's suggested theme was "Recapture: Bring New Meaning to Old Photographs".
So, on the 1st of June we got together at six d.o.g.s., armed with old photographs, threads, needles, scissors etc, and like old village gossipers we embroidered while talking about everything, we laughed and we got to know each other better.

This year, craft party's suggested theme is "Recapture: Bring New Meaning to Old Photographs".
With this great step-by-step guide, I decided to embroidery one of my favorite photos:
