embroidery designs Project 1 -
The bed linens were done for my 12 YO granddaughter's birthday. She's
a bit of a tomboy & I wanted something both feminine yet not foofy!
As you can see, the tapestry embroidery designs lend themselves well
to coordinating.

embroidery designs Project 2 -
The dark plum challis shirt was a real challenge! I didn't want to lose
the soft hand of the fabric. As you can see, the fabric is still quite
fluid.

embroidery designs Project 3 -
The white shirt was created using embroidery designs from sets 131 Floral
Tapestry & 127 Hint of the Orient. Each block on the shirt is approx.
3 x 3 in.
The only backing used
on any of the above projects was Wonder Solve ! In some instances, I did
use 2 layers. I did not hoop any of these, but used the "hoopless" method
described in
my lessons. < click to See lessons
For the right side of the shirt, I double flipped the embroidery
designs in order to keep the bulk of the shirt to the left of the machine.




132 Jacobean Flair Project
The creator of this project
did not wish to be identified.
The sweatshirt cardigan was stitched on the Ult 2001 so
that the designs could be enlarged to fill the 10"+ sewing field.
The front motifs are from 133
Jacobean Sprays. The back motif is from 132 Jacobean Flair.
Sandy's "non-hoop" method was used since the sweatshirt
is thick & would have been difficult to hoop. In addition, placement was
critical on the mirrored front sprays!
Two layers of our Wonder Solve soluble was hooped, then
misted with 505 spray adhesive to hold the SS until the hoop could be attached.
A basting frame was stitched before the design to make sure that everything
stayed in place during stitching.
As you can see, the results are beautiful! Watch for more
projects on this page!
