Today is the 22nd day of the 22nd year of the 2nd millenium! It really must be a real superday today! A day that is twice as good as any other day! Right!
To celebrate this super day I will take the opportunity to wear my "22" earrings that I embroidered for New Years eve.
You can easily make them too using scraps of canvas and some yarn.
This pattern is perfect to use for your 22! I added a few stitches but basically I used this pattern.
Be sure to use a real hard canvas, like a plastic canvas, so you can cut in it without problems.
When you have finished sewing your 2s, iron some interlining on the back of your earrings. I used two layers to make them extra firm. Then you cut around as close as you can without cutting in the embroidery. It is a litte bit tricky so you have to be careful.
When you have cut out the earrings, add a small ring and an erring hook.
This picture is from New Year´s Eve, when I inaugurated my "22" earrings.
Marcel looks happy enough to wear a silver crown on his head...
Have a good time and enjoy the 22nd day of the of the 22nd year of the 2nd millenium!
