24276Yvonne, Love the towel and the font too. Would you tell us exactly how you embroider your towels. I am having problems and have ruined 2 towels already. I'm ready to stop doing towels! ! !
Yours has come out perfect.

Thanks so much Yvonne.
Well I just love doing towels, I have not had any problems so far.
1) a) If the towel is very thick I do not hoop it I put a thick stabiliser(tear away) in the hoop, spray and then place the towel.
b)Place a piece of wws (plastic) on the top.
I always use a basting stitch around the name to ensure that it does not move. Stitch the basting stitch and hold the wws in place.
Then away I go.
Remove the basting stitch and the tear away, before I spray the design with water and just tear off the wws.
2) if towel is thin, I just hoop the towel and float a piece of stabiliser under the hoop. then carry on as in 1) b)
Hope this helps. hugs Yvonne

Thanks so much , yes I have also lost lots of towels when my children were younger. I like to add a good under stitching to my fonts when doing towels, so yes it is difficult to unpick it. Hugs Yvonne
