Boy, these are as pretty as I imagine the bracelets are...what a great presentation!!
Hi Jerri. so pretty. Did you use exactly the same thread in your bobbin? Or did you use bobbin thread which is the same colour as the embroidery thread? I sometimes have trouble winding the embroidery thread onto a bobbin as it seems to slip, causing the thread to wind very unevenly.
Hi: I just used white prewound bobbin thread, as the base colour is white with the variegated thread on top. I never use bobbins that I wind myself for embroidery anymore. I only use white and black prewounds.
Wonderful gift & box to keep it in! hugs & ***** Loralye
I forgot to mention, I embroidered their initials and 2013 on the bottom.
Thanks so much for stitching out these boxes. I also bought these designs but have not stitched them out yet. I think putting the bracelets and charms in these makes a lovely gift even more special.
Your welcome. After all the parts were stitched, I joined them to the base, then soaked them a little, before they were dry I formed the shape and stuffed paper towel inside so they would dry the way the show.
I believe you, when you say you have been busy! They are lovely and I am sure you and they will be loved. It is never too early to start making for christmas,although we don't want to rush it, we rather not be rushed last minute.
Thank you. I hate to say it, but I am almost finished for Christmas. I learnt years ago to have all my stuff done by November. When I was working, it never failed that the closer Christmas came, the busier I became doing things for others, so I learnt the hard way to get my stuff done first. Now I am retired, I still like to have mine done ahead of time, that way I am free to do things for others. My co-workers used to laugh at me, but come December, when they are all stressing, I had the last laugh
Nice idea to keep the bracelets stored safely. Lovely work!
Very pretty and the variegated thread is very nice too. The lace box just makes it extra special. Your DIL and Granddaughters will be thrilled.
Thank you. The picture really doesn't show how pretty the variegated threads look.
Very nice. A lovely container for a very special gift. hugs, Susan
