It took alot of figuring & help from cuties to do embroidery on this new case. I made it for my sister-in-laws birthday today. I started Sat but had to put it aside & then yesterday while ironing it I got gunk all over the letters! It took me forever to get it off. So I left it until this morning & now it is done & I think she will be pleased with it. She is 53 today.

thanks to all the cuties for their help with this & the tip from Jerri about marking with an erasable marker really helped

Hubs wanted her name to face down so he gets what he wants & I hope to make one for his mom too since they share a bed (down syndrome) so I hope I remember to match it upside down

Love your font, butterfly and the fabric, very pretty.... I usually put the name the opposite way, but I guess that is just a personal preference. That is also why we embroidery in the first place. We can give it our own personal touch. Good job-T

I'm sure Elaine will be happy. It looks great. I always press my embroidery from back and usually use a pressing cloth. This prevents mishaps/Lillian
