I'm sewing a few things for fall and Halloween for Sloan. I used an applique font called Mandingo and stitched it in a variety of fabrics. Then I added a spider from a few years back (so far back I can't remember where I purchased it. I think it was Nobbie Neez Kids).
The spider is a doosey even when it is only a 4x4 size and I didn't applique fabric on the end of the legs.It is one of those designs that you only want to do once. However, it always turns out so fun. Maybe a purple tutu to match this shirt?
I found this cute but inexpensive dress that needed something added to it. It's kind of busy but for play wear it is fine. I used an oval patch, Fancy Font and added a bow.
I want to make a matching pair of bloomers using the patch and font.
Back to school shirts for teachers at my school. I enlarged this design a bit. I thought it could be larger. I used my favorite Fleur de Lis and Kwekel font.
Same design on an orange shirt
I changed it up a bit and added the teacher's name
{I notice I have not clipped connecting threads yet}
I also stitched a whimsical apple with her name.
Another old design that I'm not sure where it was purchased....maybe Embroider-Boutique.
My husband and I took our last "little trip" before school starts :(
I have to keep telling myself my life does not end when school starts....lots of fun times ahead even when it does get back in full swing.
I hope everyone has a great week!

Precious outfits for Sloaney and the teacher's shirts are so colorful! Did you make some for you, too? :0)
ReplyDeleteIt's hard to believe that it's almost time for school to start. It seems like yesterday that it was graduation. Time is flying by too fast for me - a sign I'm getting old!
Have a great week, Karen! Hugs,
Carolyn
Thanks Carolyn! I'm planning to stitch some shirts for myself. We shall see if I get them done :) I hope you have a great week, too!

ReplyDeleteHi Karen,
ReplyDeleteI love your work. I am new at monogramming. Could you tell me what backing you use on your knit shirts and oneies?
