Having to take so many electrical cords on holiday I thought I would make cord wraps. The original design is from Design by Sick. I changed the words, but also adjusted their satin stitching as somehow their design was so dense in one corner that it messed up my machine (Broke my needle and jammed it!) Has anyone else tried this design and had the same problem?

I haven't tried this design yet. I would be interested if others have. Well done though changing the lettering to suit your needs.

I have not stitched this design.
Adding the name of the device is a smart way to keep track of all the cords and what they go to.

I have not tried this. I like the idea for those extra electronic cords.

I did not have an issue with the stitching - I might have gotten lucky. I too added my own names for the cords. I also used a non-fray and cut outside the satin stitching leaving a little border.

They look great. You can see in the picture how dense the satin stitch is. I have a few designer's that I reduce the density on

these are a great idea. Whenever we buy some new item with charger cords I put a sticky label around the cord with the item name written on it also so I don't forget down the track what it is for!!! Been planning to make some of these for my sewing machine cords when I take them to class .Keeps them neat .I must get busy and make some- have had the designs for ages. Thanks for showing yours completed. Lynx

I haven't tried this design. I use old toilet paper rolls to hold my cords. This is cuter. :)

Great idea. I hope you let them know about the density issue, since some of us can not make adjustments like you can! Thanks! Love your work!

Great idea! Did you use velcro? Much better than the ugly twisty ties I've need using.

Yes there is Velcro stitched on the back and front. All done in the hoop!
