Hi all, just found out I need a Christmas sweater for an office party - I have a green cotton sweater that I made years ago. Any suggestions on how to jazz it up - would appreciate suggestions -

you have some good answers. I just want to say welcome to the site. You will enjoy it here.

Now where else would you get all your answers gator but at CUTE, have fun at the party...

Why not use some of the Snowflakes from CUTE - they would be lovely in silver metallics or white on your pretty green sweater. Please share it in the projects - when you finish it.

You got some nice ideas so I just want to say welcome to this site, hope you enjoy your visits here. Glad to see you around and don't forget to post your projects in the projects section.

Good luck....I am sure you will get many great ideas here.

they have some pretty white trees at the sewforum and they will look pretty on a sweater if you also add some snowflakes.***

If ya wanted to just have something simple you could add your momogram on the left chest in a Christmas font. Like the snowflakes we just finished here.

Hi, where can I find those - just learning to get around on this site.

What about this design?

that is so pretty, I could do the outline in white, since the sweater is dark green - I'm starting to get excited about the possibilities. thanks

Since the sweater is green how about outlines/appliques of trees and wreaths and then add red crystals for berries to the wreath and different color/sizes/shapes of crystals for the tree? That would be minimal embriodery. You could even put a red bow on the wreath and I know there are metal hot fix designs and a star on top of the trees. GL *

I was even thinking of covering it all with snowflakes, I know where I can get the snowflakes, but where is the best place to look for outline designs like you suggested. gator
