This is a set of towels (Bath, hand & cloth) that I did for a gift exchange. A group (about 20) of my card friends go to a Bed & Breakfast every six months to play cards -all night- and act like "girls" again. We always have a gift exchange, where the first lady picks a gift the second lady can either take that gift or open a new one,etc. We do have sooo much fun. Anyway, this is my gift for this trip. The designs came from Embroidery Libary. I hope I am doing this process correctly, I have not posted anything before. Forgive me if I have goofed!!! Sue

Thank you. We will be going on Tuesday, April 15, and back late Thursday. Which means I will have a good time - but, I will be missing the new font. I probably need to just join Cute so I won't miss ANYTHING!!!!! HAHa *4U

Your towels are beautiful and will be a huge hit at your gathering. If I were apart of it, I would do my best to leave with those towels.

Great job. Our family does this gift exchange at Christmas somethings go around a few times, and I'm sure these towels will make the rounds too. A flower for you.

Wonderful. I love chickadees and these are so well done. flower for you.
How did you edit/split the design? I have only a 4x4 hoop and do not yet have any software to edit and my machine will not let me do only part of a design if the whole design will not fit into the 4x4 field.

Thank you, if you have them you know that an autumn leaf square goes in the middle, but I did not want the autumn colors. So,I just left it out and had to match the large limbs. That is the reason the squares are not lined up. I just wanted the soft colors. Thank you very much and *4U. sue

Thanks, I just do not want them to think -"oh great a homemade gift". But, I do not think that will happen. Flower to you

nglover1 by nglover1 06 Apr 2008

Sue , when you give a homemade you are giving a little bit of yourself. They will appreciate that.
