Help! I have a request to do a tablecloth with large(6"x10") REALISTIC peacocks on the corners. I need a design with the tail down. I've searched for days. Does anyone know where I can find one? Thanks from the bottom of my heart. CUTE hugs and *****

I have a colorwork set that is in my sewswell folder, however I could not find it on the website. Also I may have found them at a mall? There are 12 designs in the set in 4 sizes. Happy Stitchin'

This is where I got my design for the quilt I showed in projects.

Beautiful - as soon as I can I will attempt the peacock. Currently staying in Hatched in Africa world. Also saw them at the Quilt convention.

Yes, I also loved the Ace point peacocks. Do fully agree with Edith :-) Good luck for your project. Would be nice to see it when finished. I have a very big table cloth here for my 3 metres table (extended) and unfortunately it was damaged by red candle wax - I couldn't remove the color therefore maybe I should stitch some nice designs on it - but it really is a huge table cloth :-(

Good luck. I have done the large one from Hatched in Africa, and it is absoluty worth the effort and rehoopings. Sold it the next day. It made me sad and happy at the same time.

Thank you very much. I've decided to go with this design. Just need to figure out how to make the templates. I don't have PE Design.

Tip for templates:
Print design with the grids showing onto thick tracing paper (A4 size).This makes for see through aligning of all hoopings. Make tiny holes with pins on all pieces at all axis points, tape the prints together and mark the points onto your fabric.
Happy Stitching.
