Applique lingerie set

I designed this pretty set a few years back for my embroidery friend, Maresa.  She saw something similar on bags and thought it a brilliant plan to keep underwear tidy in suitcases whilst travelling.
 
It is an applique design incorporating puffy foam for the underwire affect of the bra.  I used silver braid on this stitch out, for the bra straps together with bridal satin and a lace insert on the panty.  The back strap of the bra may be omitted.

Enjoy!

Wedding Gift - Embroidered Towels

About the only client I still embroider for, ordered another set of towels for a wedding.  I have done quite a few sets over the last 10 years or so for her and she still adores every set.  I have free reign about what to put on the towels as well as the colours.  For these one's, I used a monogram from Sonia Showalter. 


The hand towels and facecloths.

 
The bath towels

And lastly, the bath sheets.
