This is the t-shirt that I started that I got started off with my second color and missed the tree limbs and stitched the leaves brown and the flowers green. My daughter was able to assist me and cut out most of it, then we tried again, another day. I finally have it on my shirt and it looks so pretty. This design came from a Husqvarna Embroidery 28 card. It was #24 on that card. This design is about 4x3 and had 6277 stitches in it. In just one stitching, we will not count the ones that we had to unstitch, Haha! Loretta

Well, even though I wasn't there to have to remove stitches, I'd say it was worth it! This is soooooo pretty! I know you will enjoy wearing it for a long time! Sweet daughter, but what else would I expect? ;)

jrob, thank you, I didn't know that you would have been willing to remove my stitches or I would have asked. HaHa. I will enjoy wearing this bird on my shirt and I may do a couple more, too. HaHa. Thank you, I think I did rather well with this daughter! HaHa!

Love the design. Don't feel bad about missing a color I think it's something we've all either done or have come close to it. A flower for you.

kttyhwk, I just should have stopped it, instead of letting it stitch, I wasn't even paying attention, but it worked out, only because my daughter unstitched it and we started over, another day. HaHa

Loretta, so this is the design that you got your colors started wrong and your daughter told you this would make a lovely rag? Hehehe! I guess you got your way and now have a lovely tee shirt. Way to go, you won. *4U

It's beautiful! I just had to un-do part of a design the other day... It never fails, when you are SO careful because you just can not have something go wrong it happens... I was upset at first and then all I could do was laugh... If life dealt me no greater 'blows' than a few missed stitches how easy it would be! lol...Good Job Loretta...Thanks for sharing.

great job, Loretta! too bad about all that ripping. I usually justify it by telling myself that I'm just "practicing"! I sure did turn out cute! Kim
