The youngest granddaughter is having her first birthday this month, my daughter bought this pink beanbag (Chair), she only said beanbag to me, so I was thinking bean bag....4x4...something like that. It did not have a lining, so if you unzipped the stuff would start pouring out. she wanteda lining made for it. I said okay sure...I get home and it is a large beanbag chair on my dinning room table! She calls later and says since you will have the stuffing out of it you could put her name on it too.... Thank goodness I have my Jamone 11000SE, it really made doing this larger design easier. NOT easy, just easier! I don't know where I got the font, but once again the design is from emblibrary. I love their designs, they are affordable and the site is easy to use. These pictures are not very good I tried to get some that would really show the design, but alas it did not turn out like that. sorry

It looks great! You did a fantastic job!

Thank you.

The design looks great. I like the lining idea, it's a good safety thing too those beans go everywhere and then some.... I can just imagine the 'fun' you had doing it though.

Yea....I had fun looking at it when it was done and all the beans/beads were corraled.

I made a lining to for thos beanbags when my children were young. AT taht time I didn't have an emberoiderymachine yet. (couldn't afford it at that time) It was very handy when I wanted the covers in the wasmachine. You did a great job.

That is what we thought it would be so easy to keep it clean that way. How long did it take you to finally get all the beans/beads found...I am still finding them daily and not just in the sewing room now, I think they are sneaking out at night while I sleep.

My oldest grand girl is also knicknamed MONKEY and she would love this, too - but with her name - Hehehe! You have done a great job. *4U

I really think it would have been easer to just make it from scratch....You should have seen me trying to hoop inside the bag!

And were you able to get all those pellets BACK into the chair!? You are one good grandma!! Looks great. Am sure Savannah loves it!

Our Savannah will be one on the 19th. Cool that both our granddaughters named Savannah are the same age too.

great thinking on the linning.. I remember when my kids had them and beans were always on the floor and the walls ..
