I wanted to make something other than ribbon bows for package toppers. I got this design from EL, but did not make it just like the directions. I made only 3 layers instead of 4, and used gold beads for the center. I glued it together instead of stitching it. I used a white background for the photo, but for some reason, it looks brown. I think I'll use double stick tape to attach it to the top of the box.
The only problem I had is that I use the 6" hoop with my Babylock. Apparently, one cannot stitch a 6" design in it, so I had to reduce the size a tiny bit. Live and learn!
The hoop is 150 mm which is less than 6 inch, 5.93" to be precise; the 100 mm hoop is 3.94". A slight difference but it can be just too much for the design one wants to use.
Well done.
Hugs, Lidia
