A Short Video of some Motifs/Techniques Learned in the Free Courses!
Planning Ahead
Are you busy? Of course you are...and so am I. That's why I look for as many "shortcuts" as possible. Like printing my embroidery designs onto fabric instead of tracing them. Just printed a dozen up and sewed some extra waste fabric strips to the side...this makes loading them into a hoop much easier.
And, I have several hand made small hoops that allows me to load several hoops at once. Then I just pick and choose what I want to stitch on. If I get bored with one design...I can move to another quickly.
So far, I have one completed...
And one almost completed this week.
Hugs,

So pretty! Reminds me of a cross stitch tea cup design I stitched for my mom years ago. So delicate and girly!
Smart thinking!
Love the idea of printing the designs. I may try that myself. Thanks for sharing.
You are way smarter than I am. In a hundred years that would never have occurred to me!
Such a great idea and beautiful stitcheries.

This is a great idea Kathy! I have a huge collection of vintage embroidery patterns and I love them but dislike tracing them onto fabric. Pam
What a great idea. I hate tracing and this sounds wonderful.
Brilliant! I learn so much from you! Thank you, Kathy!
