Here's an OOPS - I made this lovely T shirt and was going to embellish it with crystals and I burned a place in the design (gasp!) Now what to do? I haven't been able to find larger crystals in stores, so I guess I'll have to order from online. Ahhh, live and learn - P.S. I just purchased a hot fix applicator with 8 changeable tips in different sizes so this won't happen again. The design is from Stitch Delight SD608 Heirloom quilt blocks. Sorry for the fuzzy picture!

I love the look of this. You could just stitch a bullion rose over the hole. I could not find this block in SD608. I must be blilnd!

Did you try putting the design number in the homepage search box? If you still can't find it, send me a note and I'll send the url (I'm still not so sure what we can post....). Thanks for your comments and a bullion rose might just do the trick!

Very pretty! I like the idea of the larger single rose in the center.

Well actually, the hole is on the upper left (see the dark circle), there is a crystal in the center and I was going to put several other crystals in the design spaces - but I'm getting lots of good suggestions and it is tooo pretty to not try and fix.

EK Success also makes one. It runs $25 at Joann and I got mine when I had a 50% off.

I have used firemountain before, however that joann coupon is in the mail and just down the street.

I bought the only one Joanne had and it was the single size (I didn't even know there were multiple sizes that could be purchased). The one with multiple tips that I just purchased was from fire mountain. And I really love the look of the crystals (sparingly) placed on designs. Thanks for looking.
