Enjoying the Norwegian summer - a tropical garden in a country you associate with skiing, polar ice, etc.
Today I spent 10 hours on the ferry from Hirtshals in Denmark to Stavanger in Norway. Had my latop with me and digitised the current free cliart by Clipartopolis: Bluework Noah's Ark. Here they are. I intend to use them as a colouring book for my grandda
Towel. Present for grandniece. With about 800 colours in my collection you'd think I could find an exact match with the birth announcement card. But it is better in real life than it looks in the picture.
Simple "red"work design on cardstock. I don't know yet whether to use it as a birthday card or a New Year's wish.
FSL decoration I digitised for Anabela. I let it dry over a ball to shape it a bit.
Bib - My daughter asked me to make a bib to go with a dinner set she bought. The picture shows the plate.
ITH BIB. Inspired by hightechgrammy's bib I digitised this one. The front is cotton, the back towelling. It's stitched almost entirely in the hoop leaving a small opening for turning.
Bibs I just had to try the 'bapron' pattern. They are lined with the printed flannel you see in the background. I digitised a small boat similar to the ones on the fabric and copied it 3 times. Made a second bib and enlarged the boat pattern. I p
Bib My daughter asked my to digitise the logo of the Dutch Club in Stavanger. I did a test on a white bib, but they preferred orange. So here is #1.
3 towels and 1 blanket. Every year an acquaintance of mine is host to one or more children from the Chernobyl area. This year too she asked me to embroider a couple of gifts. The top left towel has Pluto - a design built in my Brother 190D. The
Small bathrobe. Made this for a customer. Had to digitise the name too as I did not have the correct font on my computer. I usually embroider on the left front, but my customer wanted the design on the right. Not such a bad idea, the design might b
Auto digitising vs manual digitising I read the question about manually punched. Being back home again I digitised one design by Clipartopolis 3 ways today to show the difference it can make in the end result. The first one is made in 5DExtr
Had to finish this order today - shirt front and back and a name on the cardigan, the baseball design was already there. The new born size is always a bit fiddly even when you hoop stabiliser only. The boy was named after his grandpa, hence the text o
Shirt and bib for my grand niece. There's a very tiny decoration on the birth announcement. I combined a few birds and a heart I digitised some time ago and used thread the colour of the card - though it looks different in the picture.
I posted the complete flower alphabet. And added the links to my list of designs. I tested 7 of the 26 and as I had no problems I assumed the rest were OK too. Pleas do not put answers in the list, that way it stays compact.
