My mom's birthday & she loves hummingbirds! 2 tea towels & 2 hand towels. The hand towels are dark so I did not embroider on them do you think that I should? Or is this nice as is. I took the design & duplicated it & then enlarged it & changed a few of the stitch settings to make it a fuller design. I was going to make 2 different ones but this turned out so nicely I decided to make them both the same!

Thanks Lindalee, but I really have no idea where it is from so you could very well be right. ~hugs~

Nope-looking back, Sarah said it's from ABC Embroidery Designs and guess what? I found it on one of my flash drives over the weekend-trying to re-edit the tons of designs that I have accumulated since I got my embroidery machine??? 7-8 yrs ago???

These are lovely Loralye. I have this design but have never used it. I will certainly put the design in my 'to do list'. At the moment we have a pair of hummingbirds frantically building a nest outside my kitchen window. Hugs Sarah

How very pretty!! There is absolutely no reason that your mom, or even a complete stranger, wouldn't love these!! They are elegant and useful.
Where did you get the design? It looks familiar but I cannot place it at the moment.

Thank you very much, she did indeed like the set very much. I'm afraid I don't recall where this came from but as it is a single I'm guessing it was a freebie dated 2007. ~hugs~

airyfairy by airyfairy 17 Jul 2014

It is from ABC Embroidery designs - a freebie from some years ago.

PatriciaVosloo by PatriciaVosloo 17 Jul 2014

It is still available on their site as a freebie - together with many other lovely designs.

I think its perfect just the way it is. I would not do the darker towels. The design wouldn't show up enough. Nice, your mom is going to love them! ***FLOWERS***
