I am in need of unbiased opinions :)

I can't decide if the daisy head should go to the left or to the right...here is my latest blog post where you can see both images. Feel free to comment there or here.

Thanks for the help

I tried to add a comment on your blog but you must need to approve it because I can't see it there now. I like the right. Looks like the majority vote.

To the right I think.
I read your blog about the napkins and how to place the designs all in the same spot. It's a piece of cake if you digitise (which you do) and have a hoop that's large enough.
Just digitise a corner in a single line. That's part of the outline of your napkin. Now place your design exactly where you want it. When embroidering stitch colour #1 on stabiliser, put your napkin on the stabiliser just touching the stitched line and embroider the rest. Perfect placement each time.
Here's an example. You can of course turn the design 45 degrees if that fits your hoop better. I use the method on all sorts of things, like the pants and hoodie I posted lately.

Mops! You rock! LOL! You always have the best tips, info, advice! Thanks for the visual, too! Hugs and *'s

Martine what a great idea. I often have problems with the position and even more if I had to do more than one piece! By the way: Love your little rabbit ;o)

Thanks. Actually, it's supposed to be a hare. I did this for my neighbour who's name is Hazenberg (Hare hill) for a family reunion.

Mops, I don't digitise. Is there any chance of this single line corner being available in DBS please - if it's not already there of course! Thanks.

Facing right looks best, as it's "face" seems to be
beaming towards the sunlight!! LOL

I'll fall in with the consensus - to the right looks good to me. Seems somehow to be more "part of the letter" that way. Hugs and *'s to all

I forgot to mention - the final daisy petals WILL be white, but i have TONS of white test fabric so I stitched it out in pink so everyone could see it against the white fabric.

It looks like almost everyone likes the daisy head going to the right...save 3 people - me, my friend Brandy, and sewfrenzie.

I think the face should be to the right because that makes the flower seem more natural. (LOL) Good luck. Your alpha looks great.***

To the right for sure. Angels looking left are looking away. Being FSL it doesn't matter but here it does. Live Laugh Download Stitch! christine
