These embroideries went wrong in so much apparently I used tear away stabalizer and not cut away. So I used a bow to cover the gap over the boot and hand embroidered the flower stalks. The blue part on the poppies is in the wrong place but too dense to undo. But I like them and hope to make another 4 different ones.

Is the yellow boot from Emblibrary, if so I have this design also---I think---but not stitched out. These designs are lovely and very stitch intense. I love them but they take so long to stitch. You hid any mistakes very cleverly. Your yellow bow looks great there. Great project and endurance.

I love the bow on your boot design. Sometimes our mistakes turn out better than the original. Thanks for sharing with us.

I like them a lot and did not see anything wrong with them. I guess you must have done a great job in covering it up.

These look fantastic. Would not have known if you had not told the problems. You have given me ideas on how to fix my problems. Thank you.

They both look terrific! We can usually manage to cover our mistakes so no one knows about them but ourselves. You did well/Lillian

Even with all the errors you called out they are still beautiful . How long did it take you to do the boot ?.

I think you are being too hard on yourself Gill, these look great. I've just enlarged them and you wouldn't know you've had problems. Hope the next lot turn out great for you. Love Chris

I remember seeing your post about having problems with the designs. What you have done looks so good no one would now it is not meant to be this way.
I have also used dressmakers interfacing as stabilizer on heavy designs with good success not the iron on type.

Wow from the pictures you couldn't tell the problems you have had. I think the yellow bow looks great! Some times we just have to think outside the box to make it work. Well done!
