I made some more of the candles for gifts for my husbands sisters. This design is from Emblibrary. I stitched it on organza. You would not believe what I went through to get these done! I purchased some candles at Wal-Mart to do these gifts. Well, after I stitched the first two designs I decided to try to put one on the candle and see what it would look like. Well - the candle literally fell apart in my hand. It was like it was made of sand. I had purchased 4 of these because I needed the 6" pillar that measured 9" around for this design. I took all of them back and got my money back, and was unable to find the size candles that I needed without paying more for them than I wanted to. So, off to the Dollar Tree. They did not have them, but they did have the small flameless candle, and it is even scented. Well, the designs that I had stitched were way too big for the battery operated one - so I had to resize and stitch out more. Now I have two beautiful Family leaves and will think of something to do with them. The design has 39,480 stitches - that was before I had to resize. I reduced the size and got it down to close to 31000 so that it would fit on the candle, and I think that it did look nice. Thanks for reading the dialoque and looking. Hugs
I love the design. Carol
I didn't embroider on them yet, I am in the process of moving, and my machines are smiling at me waiting for a miracle to start working.
Have a Joyous Holiday season, and best wishes for a Happy & a Healthy New Year.
