Throughout the years, I have had the pleasure of hosting events all across the country, and it never fails that the topic of "Mama" arises. Whether it's sparked by a funny memory or a curious question from the class, there is something about Mama that always captures our attention. Having been born and raised in Alabama, I was fortunate to experience the traditional Southern upbringing with its emphasis on close family ties and a treasury of colorful sayings. I absolutely love sharing these expressions with the wonderful people who attend my classes.
After countless requests and much anticipation, I am delighted to present to you "Mama Says...". This collection is a labor of love, capturing the essence of those cherished Southern sayings that have been passed down through generations. We have carefully compiled these sayings, putting them into written form so that you can carry a piece of Mama's wisdom with you wherever you go.
While we initially envisioned these sayings being showcased in wooden embroidery hoops, the versatility of the collection allows you to incorporate them into your favorite projects. Whether you choose to embroider them on pillows, frame them as wall art, or adorn your quilts with them, the possibilities are endless. Let your creativity guide you as you infuse your favorite projects with the wisdom and warmth of Mama's words.
We hope that "Mama Says..." becomes a treasured addition to your creative journey, sparking fond memories and evoking the sense of love and guidance that only a Mama can provide. Allow these sayings to serve as a constant reminder of the values and traditions that shape who we are, and may they bring a smile to your face and warmth to your heart as you embark on your own adventures.
Bless your hearts,
Taylor Henderson
