I had this wide whale shirt for a while, finally decided to put something on it to make it a bit more feminine.. The design is from Julia's Needle Designs..

Teriffic job dd *4U

I'm not sure what a wide whale shirt is... will give me something to google today. Regardless, this came out darling. :-)

I have been browsing the old pages and just had to comment of this lovely design on the corduroy shirt. Was wondering if it was possible to do emb on corduroy now I know. *4u

Surprisingly and nice, and orange flower for you for showing the good idea. (I will steal it...)

There one already smells spring. A whole bunch of flowers for it

Nice! Thank you for showing us, now we know it can be done on corduroy. Flower for you.

Very cute boot, it really brightens the shirt. Here's a flower to add to the ones in the boot!

Gee, I can't see the shirt - now that I am in the projects. Oh well

Very nice work - where did you get that cute design?

Nice idea, I've never done anything on cordury either. Think I'll go to the thrif store and see what I can find to practise on. A flower for inspireing us all.

very cute. Did you use a water soluable stabilizer on top of the wide whale? ;)

No, I did not, I just hooped tearaway and placed the fabric on top.. Fixed (machine basted it) and sewed the design. It covered well.

Cute Shirt , I have a lilac corduroy shirt I think I will do the same. Great Idea .... You deserve a flower .

Very nice job. I haven't tried embroidering anything on corduroy yet. Any special tips you could give would be wonderful.
