A kitchen towel from Julia's Needle designs. I realized the words " Something to crow about" were not going to show up. I removed the hoop from the machine to take a closer look and it came unhooped in my hand. I had planed to stitch over the words in Black, now I guess I got myself a new kitchen towel. Kay

you are correct! I have several Boo BOO's. My youngest granddaughter wanted to know why they always got the Boo Boos.
It is a cute design. The picture shows the saying well. Was this going to be a gift for someone?

Was to be put in the boutique I stitch for. It is not special now!!! Ha ha!
I would still go ahead and put it in the boutique. We are our own worst critics.

Kay, it doesn't look that bad to me - I like it - but then - you really wanted a new kitchen towel for yourself anyway - right? The neat thing is - you can stitch another.

It is a cute design.
If you really want to make it work, applique a small rectangular shape over the wording and restitch the saying "something to crow about" over the new applique. I absolutely love the crow and the sunflowers!!!! ~Carolyn~

Good idea, but I could just stitch another one from scratch!! To rehoop and line up would be hard!!
Looks great to me - love the autumn colors.

Nice fall colors.
I can read it when in closeup so must be alright.
Very cute towel.

I love it. The words may not be that easy to read on this picture, they are in close-up, so I think they'll be OK in real life. But I see your point: black would have shown up much better. Love that crow!

I either made a poor choice of thread color or poor choice of towel. Both, maybe!

Looks very nice. I have had my hoops do that to me too. I like the towel and the design. Is your towel cotton or terry? If it is cotton, I would like to know where you got it from, as we do not have a good supplier for kitchen towels here.
Thanks, Bonnie

yes, just a cotton kitchen dish towel. I think I purchased it from Tuesday Morning's or TJ Maxx. Are you lucky to have either store in your area?
Yes, we have both! The town I live in has 1,800 or so residents and the next really big town, 60,00 or so residents has a mall and many smaller shops. Thanks for the reply!
Sieht sehr gut aus
Such a cute sunflower design you've done& I like how it is. There's a feature on my Viking machine that allows me to see the background color before stitching but,not sure all machines have that. You'll enjoy it& nice to see a sample. Thanks for sharing your project.:~D

I have that ability in my software to change background colors, but I hardly ever do it. Perhaps I should have.
It looks really good to me. I would have thought it would be fine in green. Live and Learn. lol

It still looks good to me and I'm sure you can read it better if one was seeing it in person.

Funny!
Thank you for all your comments on my Boo Boo. I will take it to the shop and hope for the best and if it doesn't sell, then I will keep it for my self and add to my Boo Boo collection. Flowers to all and happy stitching!!!
I love the design! I am a fan of crows and sunflowers! I might even have a similar pattern to make me one similar! The green saying will show up just fine when it is hanging in the kitchen. I went in for a close up and it shows well. You may not want to try to sell it but I think it is great!
