Miscellaneous Embroidery

After returning from visiting the kids in England, I embroidered a key fob for all my quilting friends, but completely forgot to take photos.  After asking on the group, one of them did respond and send me a photo.  The design is from Beyond the frame embroidery and are available for free once you register on their site.

Whilst in the UK my daughter ordered the tassels for me from Amazon and the hardware for the Key Fob is from Fabric8.

After responding to one of my adverts on Marketplace, I embroidered two spit cloths for a client.  She ordered bunnies and chose these two from the Morehead Collection called Bountiful Bunnies.  You can find it here.

A few months back gym instructor Beryl, asked me to cover the logo of Postbank on two golf shirts with any embroidery designs suitable for a man.  I decided to do two big cats, a lion and a tiger.  With the logo being 7cm wide, I had to choose designs wide and dense enough for this task. She was overjoyed with the result and me just happy to finish as it was so thick, the thread kept on snapping. 

The original logo

and the two big cats I embroidered.

Once again, I forgot to take photos, but luckily with Embird software, I was able to save images from the designs used.  I had these designs since I bought my first embroidery machine back in 2000.

Embroidered sewing machines for friends

Nothing much happening around here craft wise.  I am helping my son setting up a buy and sell business which is keeping us pretty busy.  The only embroidery being done are 3 applique sewing machines for quilting friends attending a sew away hosted by the local Pfaff/Husqvarna vendor.

The first two are for co-quilter Frances.  The design is from Smartneedle 

which I edited with Embird software and are available here .

I received a photo of above design and low and behold, when I searched through my designs, I had the exact same one!  I had to split the stitching on the applique to be able to embroider that in a different color but with Embird, that was quickly done.  I have no idea where this design originates from.
