I have been quite busy the last few weeks designing for the first time in years. Had to learn the program almost from scratch again. But with perseverance and dedication I finally manage to finish the first new design for Embroidery Girl's online store at Oregon Patchworks. This is however an exclusive design which members will be able to download for free. I am not allowed to sell this design at all, but if it helps direct traffic to my store, all is well.
As it is an appliqué design, I had to make a project as well, so I embroidered three blocks and stitched them into a runner. Was a race against time as the design must be in by the 20th or I will be fined for not adhering to the rules as set out in the contract.
The design could be used to showcase that special fabric in the center or by adding other embroidery designs. The members will receive it in 3 sizes, 6", 7" and 8".
I still have to tidy up the runner's backside as I just raced to finish the front so that I could take photos.
And about a month later I added some of Stitchdelight's designs to the center of the blocks.
