I love these and I also have them but just have not stitched them yet. I remember Teri stitched them once and said she broke several needles because they were dense. Did you have any trouble? You did a great job!!
Yes, they are a bit dense, and I broke one needle, so, instead of using an embroidery needle, I decided to use a stronger one (like the ones used for jeans) and solved the problem!...*
