Scissor Holder-Lidia's design-I love this design and would have like to have done it justice but I will score an 'F'. My first mistake [even though I had the directions right next to me] was I forgot to cut the black stabilizer with the felt where the front satin stitching is. 2nd mistake--my duckbill scissor wouldn't let me cut as close as I needed to before all the satin stitched edges so tried my little spring scissor--it is getting dull. Next time I am going to pull out every pair of scissors I have. The file is perfect but I'm not!!! Going to have another go at this and probably another and another. Thank you Lidia for sharing-Dang it--yours are perfect!!!

from an answer below:
The design is from EmbLib: G9502 Scissors Filigree. As peafarm said, it was part of one of their VIP offerings, so is not available on their site (that I can find).
5271I think you did fine. You know we are our own worst critics/Lillian
145791Your case is lovely! Love your color choice, looks victorian...
261163318437I think it looks great . The black for the background that you used looks amazing.
10909Looks great to me... I love the blue satin stitch (and background for design) with the black. Useful and beautiful (and you are the only one who thinks it is not perfect). Thanks for sharing with us. --Sharon
9754I agree only on the letter "F" but it stands for FABULOUS! You did a great job and the embroidery design is just gorgeous!
4475We are often our own worst critics. Making mistakes is how we learn new things, besides, who says everything we do has to be perfect? I always end up with some boo boo somewhere, and that's ok. This is a fantastic design for this project! I'm looking for a scissor design and I think this is perfect!

299559Thank you to all you kind Cuties-I'm definitely going to try again but a little later on--want to try a keyfob next. We must learn from our mistakes and I don't stay at this work often . This scissor holder file was kindly shared with me by Lidia--the design was a VIP freebie from Emblibrary or one of their monthly designs--not sure since folder upstairs. Their site has special sales and offers.

Your work is good unless you do n't think so... I like it!
I apprecate the design and would like to purchase it... but don't find it in Emblibrary site. Can you give us the number or name description of it?
Thanks for your help.

4714Looks ok to me, i have just made a few scissor holders in felt different designs for my sewing group as presents. Takes a while, but you will get there, each time we do something we can always improve with the next project. Sandra.
