This is the first time I have used this design. I came across it in my stash of designs. It is just so like Ben and Georgie and this is exactly what they do on their own swing. Their mum has asked me to embroider one on a piece of sateen curtain lining so she can have it framed. I will use cotton embroidery thread as I will not want it to be shiny. Although I have made this for Georgie, I am pretty sure that Ben will want to wear it. LOL.

25546Mar 17, 2013 -- This really is a cute design -- I found it by googling Reg and Margaret Embroidery. It is one of about 40 designs for $7 on their site. The one of the kids roasting hotdogs over a fire is also really cute. Thanks for sharing this site with us and I love the shirt you made.

Very strange: I was there with Firefox and the page was empty (that'S what I wrote further down here). With Google Chrome it shows up al the pics. Have bought once this set too. Love the fairies and the children :o)

I think they might just fight over this one. Georgie wears Ben's clothes a lot anyway!!!

I have this design too and it was from Reg&Marg (part of a silhouette-set). The page was fordelinkembroidery.com but nothing comes up now there.
Not sure if this are the same: Reg&Margaret Hawkins.
They sell on embroiderydesigns.com

Thank you Mary. My GC are twins - boy and girl. Georgie's proper name is Georgina - but I think that she would like to be a boy!!!!
86901Such giggly times you have dug up in my mind! Your shirt turned out great. Can you imagine how many smiles will result from wearing this?!
