Thank you. I chose the colours as I intended to fill it with lavender, but this size was far too large for the amount of lavender I have. Have made a smaller one that would be far better as a sachet.
25510Love, love the striped fabric you chose and the design makes it look sew elegant. BUT everything you put your hand to turns out fantastic.
19439This design sings to me. I have looked through many pages under the design tab. Cannot locate. How do I find ITH patterns so I can purchase this? Thank you.

I made the pattern, so you won't find that under the designs tab.
If you have digitising software it is really a piece of cake to make an ITH pattern. If you haven't you could download a sewing pattern with instructions from http://www.contracostaquiltguild....
348Absolutely beautiful! The addition of the embroidery really makes it pop!

Thank you. I like doing pincushions, you should see my collection. But no-one of my acquaintances, friends or family are interested in sewing, so I can't share them :(
52676Martine I just love your color selection. A beautiful heart. :)

Hey Pauline, thought you were an aussie, here we spell colour (colour) in the states they spell colour (color) heheheehe...It is a word when I write it I ALWAYS think twice before I type it....having said that sometimes I just try to spell it color just to be different......love ya ...

23222Mops, this is just beautiful. Now I see that many cuties are making these. Is this a pattern that was shared among the cuties? Is there a link to this pattern? I'd love to make one. Just too adorable. Carole

One of the cuties started this and found a pattern here: http://www.contracostaquiltguild.... which is done with the help of a sewing machine.
I had a look, then decided to try something like it to be done in the hoop; so I drew a heart outline, then made the extensions that gave it the bib-shape large enough to fit my largest hoop. .
2423This is lovely!
The design looks 3D
Well done!

Thank you. I find that satin stitch always gives the nicest shine and thanks to the underlay it lies on top of the fabric.
57618Love the fabric choice as that blue steps close with the lavender after all red and blue make purple. This is just gorgeous.

2995572476223Nicely done...what is the approximate finished size?
by mops

The design was done in a 200x240mm hoop. It measures 9.11 " x 7.8 " and stuffed and tied about 6" x 6", which is large, so I downsized it later.

Thanks...that is about the same size I did for the pincushion for next to my machine...and then I downsized for the chatelaine....
31387341781The embroidery design on top makes it extra fabulous. Love the colours Mops
5780121044This turned out beautifully. I like it with a design added and your colors really pop. What did you use as filler? It's really nice and smooth.

Thanks. Polyfill, and you know that always takes more than you thought it would.
158553Thanks It is so helpful to see it from the beginning. The finished project is lovely.

Thank you. I digitised a heart and then added "ties". It looked nice on paper (in my software rather) but when I saw the "bib" finished I wondered whether it would really get that heart-shape and was pleasantly surprised it turned out as nice as it di
168893Everyone's at it!
I really must say though, that this is gorgeous. Real style.

Thank you, Dennis.
I did not have one original thought yesterday, even the design was part of one I did earlier. LOL
But I'm glad you like it. Isn't it fun to see them in so many colour variations.

I agree. I think that it is marvelous that so many material/colour variations have been produced by Cuties and in such a short space of time. Well done everyone.

253107Martine, this is gorgeous.......your fabric and design and thread choice are superb!!

Thanks, Vicky.
To be very honest, I started the embroidery and then got upstairs to get the purple fabric I knew was there and as soon as I got it I realised it is has more blue in it than the embroidery thread. Should have got the fabric out first!

27356This is stunning, the addition of embroidery and your choice of colours is stunning
114324Love them both, and I agree with Sue: brilliant, beautiful fabric and leaf design!
Hugs, Lidia
78092This one is really pretty with the embroidery ...well done
4758Looks brilliant - I though "bib" as well when I saw how mine looked.

Thanks. Before stuffing it I thought the ties would be far to short, but it worked after all.

It is nice to see you post. Martine created the featured ITH design. Sue also created one of her own as did dragonflyer. All three have been posted. There is also a regular sewing pattern or tow that have been used with attached links.
