Christmas Tea Towels.......

These gorgeous designs are from Embroidery Library and they stitched out beautifully as well.  Just a couple of quick gifts for friends. I used heat and gone for topping again. I love that stuff, makes life easy.

More Christmas T Shirts.......

These T Shirts are for my youngest grandson, Cooper.    The ( I love Santa ) was from Urban Threads and the Santa with the Kangaroo and Emu is from Punch with Judy.  A great Australian design.  It looks like the hoop moved,  but  it will ok for him to wear out in the yard.  Some places matched up really well and others didn't.   Being a small T Shirt it did get caught on the arm of the embroidery machine so I am guessing that was the problem.    I am going to have another go at this design when I get a bit more time.

Christmas T Shirt.......


This design is from Urban Threads, they always have great designs.  I am always on the look out for designs for bigger boys now as my grandsons are getting past the T Shirt stage that Grandma makes.  This design stitched out perfectly until I changed the cotton for the gold Believin' and I broke 3 needles and the machine wouldn't stitch but with perseverance I managed to get it done.   My brother machine was in getting fixed so I had to use the Singer.  I don't know why I don't use it more as it stitches so nicely........
