Australia Day T Shirts..........


I found this great design  at Annes Embroidery. Just perfect for our Australia Day.. It stitched out beautifully.  I hope my grandsons enjoy wearing them.  I used press and gone on top of the shirt and after I pulled the excess away I just put a hot iron on the design to remove the rest.  I find it a lot easier to use. then the water soluble stabilizer.

Footy Zippered Bag .............

Another Bag from Disorderly Threads.   I needed a bag for my 14 year old Grandson, Kellen.  I thought  this would be good for him.  All made in one hooping in the hoop, even putting the zip in and no raw edges inside.
I just love the way these bags turn out.

More Zippered Bags............


I am getting addicted to these ITH zippered bags from Disorderly Threads. I made these for my Grandson who love to dress up as Fireman Sam so the fire truck was a must and his Poppy has a Red Tractor so I knew he would love that one as well.  Once again all made In the Hoop on the Embroidery Machine. with no seams showing.  Just a bit of  hand sewing where you turn the bag inside out.  Must follow the directions because if you don't open the zipper at the right time you can't turn the bag.  I found that out the hard way, nothing I could do, the bag was completely finished and I couldn't turn it to the right side.  Lesson learnt!!!!!!!!

More Christmas Angels ....................

More Christmas Angels, this time I used the other pattern with the eyes closed and a different dress. I put dark hair on one for a friend who has dark hair.  She loved it.  The design is from Oma's Place and the Angels are made in three hoopings and then put together
