This was a happy accident. I was stitching the santa on a tshirt. The machine proceeded to eat tshirt and stitching got off. I didn't have the right stablizer, this was early in my embroidery career. To fix this mess, I hooped some Xmas material and stitched out the Santa. Sadly, it happened again, (poor stablizer choices)but this time it was almost finished. There were presents at his feet and that is where the mess up happened. I then took some lofty white material for faux snow and cute to cover this latest mess. Then I appliqued over the first Santa mess. The snow part kinda shows thru the stitches at the bottom, but at this point I was about ready to pull my hair out. The customer was satisfied so that is all that mattered. Sometimes you got to get creative to get the job done.
