i hope the picture i have posted helps you in making it. I have tried to explain it but i'm not very good with words :) I made this in my 4x4 hoop. You need to fold your felt first and then place it on the first stitch line, sew the rest of the design. You could use this as a tag too and put names or a saying on it.


thank you sewmom for all your help and converting this design. There are 2 pes sizes. Right click on any of the pictures and save as picture and this will help when making it.

Happy Holidays

hugs Lee

smithandsmith by smithandsmith 09 Dec 2011

place the fold over the first line you stitch, instead of on it. If you move the felt above or below this line, you will make the holes bigger or smaller

I made two of these on felt, one a mirror image and sewed them together with a 3" wide piece of felt to make a candy dish. It came out great and is so cute.

I think I am starting to get it. Once you fold the felt you have to rehoop it to keep it in the hoop. Is this correct. Thanks.

I am still trying to find out please what holds the felt when you fold it and put the felt on the guide line. Is it held there with spray. So far noone has been able to answer me. Can anyone help please. I have asked before but no reply. Thanks.

spanishpeach by spanishpeach 02 Dec 2011

Hope this helps.You hoop your stabiliser and stitch out the placement line.Fold your felt and put the fold on the placement line.You could hold it with spray (making sure not to put it near the folded area)or tape or just your fingers .Make sure you dont get them in the way of the needle.I would assume the next stitch would be the outline.Once that is stitched, your fabric is held in place and you can enjoy watching it stitch out.Hope this is clear for you.

sandra54349 by sandra54349 02 Dec 2011

At long last the penny drops (so to speak). I tried one yesterday and it worked. I had to cut the stitches at the bottom so a hole would appear to put the candy cane through. Thanks sorry for all the trouble I have given you.

Thanks. A question please. If you fold the felt. How do you keep it in the hoop as you embroider out the rest of the design. I am trying to imagine it, but unless you use spray I can't envisage it. Help please. Thanks again.

smithandsmith by smithandsmith 09 Dec 2011

hoop your tear away stabilizer and sew the first line, fold your felt and place it on the first line you stitch, then the next one will hold down the felt for you. I have never used the spray with these.

Now, after doing 6 of these cute sleighs today, you do have to unpick the vertical lines under the sleigh when
you are finished.

by margiepeart 11 Dec 2010

Oh, I think I just figured it out. You don't put your folded felt piece down until the 4 rows of stitches that are vertical to the bottom placement line are stitched out. Is that right? Of all the things that I have lost, I miss my mind the most.
Margie

smithandsmith by smithandsmith 11 Dec 2010

Hi Margie... don't put your felt down until you sew the first line.The first line is a single line across the bottom. That is your placement line for your felt. Place the fold on this line. Then sew the rest of the design. Right click on the picture above and click save as picture. This will help you. Once you do one , you'll have no problem with the rest :)

Thank you for this lovely design. Maybe I am doing something wrong. I placed the fold of the felt on the line as you instructed. With the 2 lines stitched vertically from the bottom line to the sleigh, there is no room for the candy cane. I have had to unpick the 4 lines of stitching that are at the bottom of the sleigh. I am going to make 16 of these for my grandaughter's pre school class. Thank you again for your generosity and giving so freely of your talents.

Just tried my first sleigh, used up almost empty bobbins and such and figured out for the right size bottom loops but it turned out kinda cute! Now I can do a good one next time. This one is going to lose the bottom loops and top ring and get filled with catnip! No waste here, lol!

smithandsmith by smithandsmith 26 Nov 2010

:) if you line up the fold on the first line stitched, it should be the right size for the candy canes but if you candy cane is biiger, then just put the felt a little lower on the fold line.

In your picture, it doesn't show at all not even on the little hoop. How and when did you remove it? I don't do much applique so I am a little confused. Thank you, Gigi
