Own up ladies, who owns lilac TP? :-) :-) I do hope you will not be bored with another embroidered TP project but I was so taken with the fun idea I had to try it for myself. This is a cross stitch design from a 'Sayings' CD, a section called Purple Hat Houserules.

LOOOOVE it! How do you embroider on TP? I think you can't frame it, can we? Forgive my ignorance but I would be very happy to know more about it. *4U

Embroidery Library have some very good instructions Nini. The TP is hooped (very carefully!) I used extra stabiliser because my first attempt was 'cut out' by the needle, but using the extra seemed to be fine - until removing it for the finished product, that was tricky.

its fantastic elenu, I really love it. hmmm no I'm afraid lilac tp never entered our household but I have it worse..... in Germany the fever is rising for the upcoming European football(soccer)championship and everything in now with football theme..... so our tp actually has men playing football embossed on it and even worse...... it is grass scented!!! (if you are still wondering who bought this item, yes it was the male of the species NOT me lol)

Oh dear Anna25775, hope you enjoy the football otherwise it's not good . . . but it certainly is a new slant on TP!! 'bend it like Beckham' etc.

I'm mystified!!! I have no idea why 2 projects are listed. I did have problems because the site (or something) was on 'go slow' and I did get a LITTLE BIT impatient. Anyway, whatever happened, lease accept my apologies.

I have just realised that this is the first upload I did, didn't like the picture and cancelled the entry - does this mean that cancellation facility doesn't work I wonder??
