Hi Cuties, I almost feel guilty to post so soon after posting the memory journals…almost-

One of our very own Cuties designed this sticky note holder, then she specially redesigned it without so many stitches, so I could embroider them quicker for bus traveler gifts. I made the two blue ones since I posted the journals so the new version is faster. I agree with Kim that the candlewick stitches are prettier but if you had never seen them, I bet you’d think the resign is so pretty! Thank you Dragonflyer for helping a fellow Cutie, once again.

Yes, the bee one is the best looking but the others are just as good and I need variety. Thanks

I'm hope you will be going on the bus trips again and thought these would be perfect for you. But I understand about not wanting to leave your handsome hubby. Thanks and kudos to Dragonflyer for sharing her talents.

Yes Kim is always so thoughtful, generous, and talented. I think the Cuties here that can digitize are awesome. I am lucky I can navigate the site-lol- so software or pc programs are lost on me.
Eraine is hoping I go again too but even if I don't she will have these gifts to give out for the games.

They look great & would be useful to just pop in your bag. Is this design available anywhere?

Thank you and yes will be quiet useful.

The design info is in my main post.

christracey by christracey 14 Jun 2021

I can see that Dragonflyer redesigned them for you but can't see if the design is available. I tried looking on Dragonflyer's post but no luck...

toogie by toogie 15 Jun 2021

Have you tried to pm her?

The print for the blue was gifted to me and the other fabrics I had already. Yellow fabrics from my granddaughter's You Are My Sunshine quilt I posted in Sewing.

Don't feel guilty! I love every single one of your posts! I like that you put a snap on some. Probably makes it more secure.

I think it is an unusual but useful item. I am always grateful for suggestions to make gifts for the travelers bc most are recurring passengers, it makes it difficult to think of something we haven’t already given.

Whoa, now you sound like Eraine. She has been ready to go but I'm a little slower feeling safe to travel.I think her first trip is scheduled for September. She talked about Mobile or Gulf Shores, Alabama but also Pigeon Forge,Tenn. I was only half listening. I tell her my trips are probably over. Besides the virus, I don't want to leave hubby. She says he will be fine.

Well done Toogie, may I ask you how long do these take now to sew up? They all look fabulous and thanks to our Cutie Kim for always being willing to help us out. Love Chris

Oh Chris, I know it was quicker, but I guess I need to time them. I know I stitched them and fixed hamburgers between postings-lol

dragonflyer by dragonflyer 12 Jun 2021

Hi Chris...depending upon what embroidery details you are stitching the time varies...If you were making multiples, having your fabrics cut out would really save time. If you stitch like Toogie did on the batiks with just the quilting...I would guess you could get one done in about 15 to 20 minutes tops.

The closest she has came to you was the last trip to Colorado and that's the trip I had to cancel last minute. (hubby's heart cath) Would love to have a bus load of Cuties!
