Hi Cuties: A couple of days ago,I ask if anyone has seen a FSL Tealight cover that could be used to add thread cuttings. Well, Yoriko has come up with two very pretty designs. I have just started saving my clippings, so I thought I would show you the two designs, Yoriko has digitized. Check out her site for both of them. One is for 5x7 and the other 4x4.

Hugs Jerri

Beautiful. This would be a good gift for someone you do a lot of sewing for or as shower gift.

Don't they look pretty. I wish I had started to save my threads, then I could do one for myself. I am thinking white embroidery thread. Can't wait to try it.

Hi Jerri,
I wish I could give you a big ole hug in person, but hoping you feel the cyber hug I send to you. Your ideal is excellent and our Sister, Yoriko did a wonderful job digitizing these 2 lovely designs. I have just stitched out one part of the 4x4 rose and it's going for a swim as I type. I've already taken a peek and it looks sooooo neat!
Thank you for the super duper ideal and thank you Sister for working your magic once again to bring love and happiness all and to those whom receive our gifts!
Hugs and *** to you both!

Hi Maryanne: I feel your cyber hug, thank you. I am so glad you like the design and have tried it. What colour are you using for the embroidery? When I get enough threads, I am going to do mine in white.
Yoriko did a fantastic job on both and I hope she gets lots of sales for them.
How did you do yours? I thought of doing mine, when I can as WSS, fine netting, thread cuttings, fine netting, WSS. I thought the netting woul keep the threads in place. I have not done anything like this.
Hugs back to you: Jerri

Yahoo! I'm happy you felt the hug! I used baby yellow for the embroidery. I put a bunch of threads over top of WSS then a WSS topping. I let the fill and the roses stitch, then stopped Singer Girl and trimmed the thread tails, You kinda have to watch to do it this way, but the fill and roses stitch first then there is a running stitch that goes to the side decoration that finished the sides satin and final outline stitches. The only other design I've tried with thread snips is the FSL Thread Heart our Sister Yoriko has at her site. I learned to put more thread though with the tealight cover. After the one piece dries, I'll try to put some step pictures for you either here or in a PM. I have to say it is so much fun to stitch and I loved the surprise when the WSS started dissolving.
Hugs and ***

That is what I wanted the design for. These are Yoriko's sew outs. I am just starting to save my threads. Just may have to cut up some one ones, just so I can make them.
Can't wait to see what it looks like with a tealight behind it.
