Stitching on vinyl hasn’t hurt mine and I’ve stitched a good bit. I have answered you in a pm. Thank you Maria and always glad to hear from you.

70753I love making some of these also but my machine does not like anything taped at the bottom, like when you have to tape a piece of vinyl bottom side. It rolls up on me and then the whole thing doesn't want to move. Tried different tapes and none seem to want to work--maybe it is whatever is on my cutaway stabilizer coating it. I do not know--maybe someone else has this same problem? I am next going to try a chapstick or balm holder for my granddaughter. Kim always does such a great job digitizing. Toogie I looked at each picture--I see nothing wrong with any--they look fantastic.

Hi Patti...I generally use tear away for these types of projects...what type of tape are you using? Have you tried using a temporary spray like 505 instead of tape? I have used a furniture spray like Pledge on a cloth and wiped the bed of my machine to help with things not "sticking" as well.

Yes, they look ok but I worried about the denseness causing the vinyl to come apart around the design of the hands. Just perforates too much.
I hope Kim helped with your problem.

I have some KK2000 and will try that next, hope that is as good as 505. A friend suggested PAM also. Will do both. I've tried 2 tackiness of Painter's Blue tape, scotch brand tape, Washi tape and regular Masking Tape. All curled up so bad. Thanks Kim.- I will add Pledge to my list to try also.

Patti, you could also slip a piece of light weight tear away stabilizer under the hoop after you have taped the vinyl to the back...that way the tape and vinyl would not shift when the hoop moved and after all was done, you could easily tear away the stabilizer from the back...this should solve your problem.

After finding this one fairly easy I searched for the Eepffree one but couldn't find it. However, while looking in Enigma Embroidery I found a lot of other free designs. Have a look in sets and most have at least one and some have 2 freebies.
65926I like the two hands I made one with one hand I made my with a kokopelli on it. I wish we had a Dollar Tree I have to go the Tulsa. You did a good job!

I have to go 15-20 miles east, south, or west or 40 miles north for a Dollar Tree. I am in the country, so when I go I stock up. Thanks for looking!
421I love these, I have 1oz and 2oz....Maybe I will join you on a trip so I can get one of these holders! Suzanna

'Come on down' as Bob Barker used to say! I only have the 2 oz $Tree and the Bath & Body ones are 1 oz. I just looked but bottles are different and lids, too.
18072They are perfect now! Kudos to you and to Kim. I couldn't digitize a straight line if my life depended on it so I'm so very grateful for all of our digitizers.
168893Everyone will love thses. I know several of my friends would love if I made them one! Haven't stitched on vynal yet so it would be a learning experience.
33640These turned out great! I have never tried my hand at these....too afraid I guess. Might need to find a file to make these. Great job for both you and Kim.
20077Wow, these are just perfect!!! Love the designs! Makes a great gift!! Hugs to talented you and talented Kim!! Laura
95274Great job you two, i like the two hands verry much, hugs Maria

I like the hands too, just wish the stitches weren't so dense. Thanks for looking!
20108Toogie, Very nice, glad you found something to make for your trips. These are great!

Now how did you know!-lol I wonder about giving them to a man? Plain of course, but I know they could hook it on belt loops, as my grand daughter hooked hers Kim did, to fit the Bath and Body bottle.
41781Great job you two.Thank you Kim for so often helping Cuties out with your digitizing skills. Toogie how many of those do you have to make? They are perfect for your bus trips. Very practical.

Yes very practical, everybody could use these. She has two trips coming up, so if I can get the hardware on sale, 80-90..... When I've been getting the hooks, they are 2 in a pack for $1.00 regularly 2 in pk for $1.99, but when I go and they are half off, I buy what they have, which is usually just 5 or 6 packs. You are right about Kim. She does so much, always willing to help, I sometimes feel ashamed to ask when I want something in particular. Digitizing will always remain 'above me' as I don't understand technology.
If you find a not too dense freebie suitable for these, point me in that direction. I have a feeling at that many to make I will soon tire of the pretty peach one, even changing colors!!! Luckily, I told Kim one of our bus drivers gave me about a yard and half of this brown vinyl. She embroiders too, remember I told yall. She brings her machine sometimes with her, when she takes a group to a ballgame. The bus has outlets she plugs to and stitches away, on the bus while passengers are in the stadium!!! How great is that!
109762Well done the two of you. This way you don't have to turn them inside out too! I love the little pair of hands, just the right clue for what to do with them. Love Chris

Yes, you are correct on all accounts Chris. I told Kim the hands I want to make a couple, for our new great-grand babies' moms, to hang on their diaper bags. Would be neat to include in a baby gift. Again tho, I wish the design were less dense. I am afraid it will perforate the vinyl too much and just come apart. Thanks goes to Kim and her brilliant mind.
