33640Great Job, it turned out perfect. You are very brave.
2263The jacket looks very professional now, with his number on the back. I’m sure he will love it, and come back with more ideas for you to stitch for his racing activities. You’re a wonderful grandmother to do this for him.

Thanks to you and others for all your help. You see now why I needed black stabilizer. My top threads show a little where they stop or start against the stabilizer. I may go back and trim a little closer around outer edges, but it is still a lot better than having white stabilizer.

If by trimming doesn't do the trick then use fabric felts and just color it in. Happy Stitching
3162565926Well done, your grandson will love his “new” jacket. Hope he doesn’t go and tell all his friends where he got the fancy stitching! You did a wonderful job.
1216WOW, awesome job, he will be so proud. I agree with all your thanks to your help as they did a great job also.
Always so nice and fresh breath feel to get an item completed.
Truly a very special Grandmother, but he knew that.

11469I love it Toogie and I understand you completely on the sweating 'bullets' over a project. My mind works way overtime and I do overkill on the thinking processes. I've never done a jacket and don't ever want to. All cuties that helped you are the salt of the earth in my opinion ready to come to the rescue. Beware, now he sees this he may want you to do more, lol. I don't stitch for anyone anymore unless it is something I make for the kids in my family. Too stressful. I have to tweak the little spring on my top tension plate of my Ellisimo Gold and try out my embroideries again. I told my husband I am tweaking the tension from default too much with regular decorative stitches and straight stitching so I know it will still be off for embroidery. When he is in the mood to work on that clip and spring again. At least it is moving again and the thread is staying in the slots instead of jumping out. Again, you are ready to move on now and can relax a bit. Great job I'd say.

Thanks Patti, Cuties are the greatest!!! Always there for you. Hope you get your machine sorted out.
18272I'm so glad you managed to get this project finished and you did a super job too. I can understand your stress over it. I say no because of my fear of messing up someone's else's property. Kudos to you for job well done. Now I hope you manage to enjoy some stitching on your own projects.

My kids/grands just expect me to get ‘whatever’ done but they don’t realize my anxiety over a project like this. I don’t think I ever have a no for them-lol

I'm sure you can't understand how nervous I was, as you are so good, with your work. I figured I might as well do or die but I am thrilled at the result. Thank you again, for your patience with me, I am grateful.
261161Congratulations on achieving a difficult and worrying piece of work. Dalton will have all his friends queuing up for your services. Cuties are very helpful and it has been a group effort to help you achieve this. Vicki has digitised a few designs for me over the years and every one has been excellent.

I'll do for him, but don't want to do an expensive or irreplaceable project again. This embroidery stress ages me and I'm aging fast enough!-lol
