Well this one turned out great too, but for the life of me I can't remember where I got it from. I have had this for a while and and the only thing I have on it is Auto digitising! There are over 17 thousand stitches in this one. They are easy to do. I have bought a stack of pot holders for $2.50 and undone them to put them in the hoop and then I've done the design and resewed them. All in all they work out really well and because they are already padded I've not used any stabiliser. Love and blessings Chris

You got a good price on your sack of pot holders and they seem to stitch out well. Are you using a special needle to get through all the padding?

Hi Capoodle - thanks for your comments. I've actually used a number 14/90 as it was a bit thicker. Love Chris

This is a great idea, do you un stitch the sides so you can embroider? I think I would like to give it a go.

This really looks good! Never thought of taking a seam out and emb. Might have to try that. Thanks.

I undo a lot of "little" items if I can't get the hoop in them, it's easier to stitch them back up that try and force something into the hoop. Love Chris

Good Shirlene, that's what I'm trying to achieve. I want them all to have Christmas designs so that each lady can use them in their kitchen for the festive season. Love Chris

Hi Soozie, there is a little shop 300metres from my home. It's one of those shops that sell everything. The owner's name is Jay Jay. He is a wonderful Asian gentleman and if you ever need anything he has it.

I'm going to the Craft fair too at the end of the month. Let me know and I'll meet you out the front of the Entertainment Centre. Love Chris
by snowbird42 04 Aug 2011
