Hi Cuties, I thought that I would show you some eye glass cases that I embroidered awhile ago. I just embroidered a piece of material, then cut it to shape, adding lining and a feature fabric boarder. The added elastic loop is a hair tie, sewn into the seam.

Thankyou for looking

They both look very pretty. That's how we used to do it and I still prefer it to ITH designs. But not everyone will agree with me.

Hi mops and tilde01, Thankyou so much, I used some Machine Embroideries from Daphne Nevilles designs, she is an Australian Lady who holds small classes where I live in South Australia. You can find her designs on the internet.

Hi Chris, Yes they turned out rather well, I thought. I have many more cut out, but put away until I get the urge to Machine Embroider again.
Love Lorraine

Love your eye glass cases. I agree with you and mops, a lot of things we can do the"old" way more quickly and unique.

Hi elemausi, Yes I think sometimes it is just as easy to do it the old fashioned way and be done with it. But then again there is a lot of great ITH crafts you can buy, that turn out a lot neater than by sewing machine alone.
