Fun with Toilet Paper !!!!!!!!!



A great idea for a bit of fun, Embroidering on toilet paper.  Does seem a bit weird, doesn't it.  A awesome  gift for someone who has everything or just for a laugh.   You can use any 4 x 4 design as long as it is not too dense.  Goodies by Gail sells designs  specially digitized for toilet paper.  You will find something for every occasion.   Have a go you will be surprised how easy it is.

                                                                             

Christmas Tea Towels.................


I embroidered some Christmas Tea Towels to have on hand in case visitors stop by over the Christmas Holidays.  I really love the little house which was off a Brother Embroidery Card.
I have decided to go through my cards and use them as they have some great designs and I never think to use them. So maybe a New Years Resolution instead of buying more designs on the internet.

Snow Ball Fight.........


A brilliant  idea from Embroidery Garden, Lets have a Snow Ball Fight.  The balls are made from white fleece fabric and the cute faces are embroidered and the balls are stuffed with toy filling
Living where I just can't pop down to the shops to get sewing supplies, I found some off cuts of white fleece that I had kept and I managed to get 2 sets of balls.  I was happy to finally find a use for some of my scraps as well as to have a great gift for the grandkids..........

Christmas T Shirts ..........


My grandsons are getting too old for T Shirts ( that's what they think) so this year I only made for the two youngest, Cooper aged 6 and Thomas aged 10.  These great designs are from Urban Threads .  I really loved how they turned out as they are not too heavy for the T Shirt fabric.. These designs where stitched on a Singer xl 400 in a 6 x 10 hoop.
