Hand Embroidery

Trying hand embroidery for first time. My mom used to knit sweaters as we were kids. I had a memory as a kid we (me and my younger sister) used to get excited as mom starts her knitting. As we gonna wear some cool designed sweaters. Never got to learn knitting for her as it did not interest me as a younger me was more interested in dancing and performing.
