SUE'S JULY CHALLENGE

And what a challenge this was. My first bar of soap. I learnt one thing - never use glycerine soap. It has taken three weeks to dry, with embroidery sliding around. For once my DH is right. "What a stupid thing to do" he said!!!!!

This is gorgeous! I'd hate to use it - I'd have to have it for display only! It may have taken 3 wks. to dry, but I'd say worth it. Now you'll probably find any other ones so easy.

I think they are only for display as the embroidery would come off almost immediately.

I bought it as a 'natural' glycerine bar.

Three weeks to dry? Holy Cow! Thank goodness you posted that. I hadn't done embroidery on soap and I was going to try it on glycerine, but not now. Your soap looks really lovely, but three weeks! Yikes!

LOL, Sarah, to hubby's remark....but, the result rocks!! The glycerin really is a nice backdrop for the design, it provides a neutral setting...love it!

Some things we discover only by trying them out;now others will benefit knowing that it is the wrong type of soap to use...lovely design.

Thank you Martine. It is a design from Ms Veronica. I had to cut off a bit of the pattern to make it fit.
