Aug 30, 2013 I did the tissue holders from JannyPrimrose, and I really hope her designs are done better. There are no support stitches under the opening, so I did all that on a regular machine. There are no instructions, however the last satin stitch in on the back, so do the front first. I made three and none of them are perfect. Good enough? OK yes. looks like one is not quite opened yet. Lol!

Make sure you let her know that you're not happy with the design. If you don't let them know, They can't correct the problems if you don't tell them.

They look very pretty but the opening looks as if it needs more underlay stitching.

I would drop them a note and let them know your thoughts...and perhaps suggest that they include instructions with their downloads...and that after making these, you question whether you would want to purchase their designs... if this is any indication of their quality...

#Exactly. Janny has been around a while and she is associated with either sewbeautiful or nancy. I realized I had made this same one wayback and did not like it. Good thing today I knew how to fix it!

I'm sure there are tissue holders here in DBC that stitch out better. I have posted pix of one I made from here (don't remember which it was--last winter maybe. Did it as gift for friend...very nice and easy.

It is disappointing when a design turns out to be imperfect. I agree that the digitizer would like to know so she/he can make it right.

It is tough to complain about something. I'm a very mild mannered person, and understand that it would be difficult to say something. Instead, maybe you could send an email with a link to this discussion page. Perhaps that will say it all. Good luck!

With your encouragement I sent her the link. She responded, and I wrote back, and then she sent me a corrected file. I am happy now, because it is a useable design, and I think now it does reflect the kind of digitizer she is. Thank you Janny!

I love your fabric, Christine...the one in the middle is turned inside out and looks better that way, did you do something different on that one? I am so happy she fixed this for you!!

It was the first one and I made the back first, so as soon as I saw the satin stitch I knew. I had to take it out of the machine and sew it this way, now I know and I have instructions. Yeah!
