The possibilities are endless! Today, I am sending a Grandma Care Package, Valentine’s Day theme. It will include the WeAllSew doorhanger and the small stuffed heart (on a ribbon, necklace). Also, three different zippered bags (ITH projects), two “love” cork coasters (ITH). Since one of the recipients is a young boy…and he really does not want a Heart or flower bag, I found a Bernina ladybug pattern to embed in a larger zipper bag (ITH)…I just hope his mom doesn’t let him collect ladybugs in the bag.

My favorite type of embroidery is applique and red work. I love applique because the fabric that you use can dramatically change the look of any design. The same applique design can be plain, fun, fancy, or cute, depending on the type, pattern, and texture of the fabric used, and thus can appeal to different ages, sexes, or just be unisex. An applique design can be used for different holidays using the fabric that pertains to a certain holiday, and they are usually quicker to stitch out. Red work designs are a favorite ,because they are so quick to stitch out, can be used on a variety type of fabrics, and are great designs to stitch on card stock for personalized cards.

I love In the Hoop projects. I feel like there is so much room for “creative liberties” in the final outcome and enjoy mixing elements from different projects in V8.

Changing the size or location of something is also great to make it more perfect for my intended use. Its all so easy to do with the software.

My favorite type of machine embroidery is Free Standing Lace. it is so versatile. There are so many things one can embroider – 3-D flowers, ornaments, jewelry, little containers, sandals, I could go on and on.

I really like the free standing lace. I made several freestanding lace crosses for my choir group at Church, and for the Helping Hands Ladies at Church. We make little quilts for the Child Abuse Network. Also I made them for my family members and for the Craft Group in my neighborhood along with the Bunco Ladies. Some of the ladies used them on their Christmas trees and some used them as bookmarks.
I have embroidered numerous burp cloths for our newborn babies.
I embroidered the names of the men in our Church on a necktie they donated to make paraments for our church. After I got those done, the ladies wanted handkerchiefs embroidered with their names so I could also make paraments with them. Each year the men and women line up to find their names on the alter cloths. -

When I have a rip, tear, hole or worn spot in an otherwise perfect piece of clothing, I have a lot of fun embroidering a design to cover up the flaw. Sometimes it’s subtle, like a white on white flower and sometimes it’s bold like a Texas flag on my husband’s work clothes.
