Camel and palms mug rug/tablemat.
I have used four of the gorgeous Morocco collection and the grass design from the Zoo Babies collection, all by Sue Box Creations. I'm impressed by Sue's exceptional digitising of the camel and the trees.Outline made by me (with the invaluable help of 4D Embroidery Extra) and the satin circle is a freebie downloaded a long time ago, when I wasn't used to save the digitiser's name.
78119So beautiful...I have this set but haven't tried any designs yet. Now, after seeing this, I will be doing them today! I like the size you used for this too as most are just too small for me. You have given me inspiration to get going and get back to embroidering which I enjoy doing so much, and this will make great gifts too. Hugs and blessings, from Sevierville, TN.

Thank you, Penny. I'm glad that my mug rug/tablemat has inspired you to get back to embroidering. I get inspiration from the other Cuties too. Hugs, Lidia

Thank you, evie. I love mug rugs too, especially when they come with well-digitised designs such as these made by Sue Box.
Hugs, Lidia

Thank you, Lilylyn. I have the FSL Swan too but haven't stitched it out. I agree that Sue's lace is wonderful.

20463What a great mug rug - I love it. Sue Box is an exceptional digitiser, isn't she? You can have your coffee and dream of a camel ride across the Sahara.

Thank you, Venetia. Love Sue's attention to detail and using fills that make you touch the embroidery and admire how one colour can look like four colours, depending on the direction of the stitches, like it happened when stitching the camel's body. It has been fascinating watching my machine while it was stitching the camel or the trunk of the trees, and of course, the foliage. Even the little round design was fascinating. Hugs, Lidia
