More hoops

This is a set of 3 hoops that can be hung separately or in a grouping . All of the embroidery work is software in my machine or a download to stick. The wording in all though I had to creat letter by letter. It is time consuming effort.

More hoops

I forgot to add to the first items that once I had the project finished and sandwiched with stabilizer and quilt batting that I added a fabric back to hid all the stiches of the embroidery work and then when I put the rick rack about the hoop with glue the back side looked just a finished and the front sides.

Embroidery hoops

Another hoop used . I used my embroidery machine to find designs and then used my letters to write verses on many of them This one however is just some cloud print material from another art project I did sometime back.. I used a light stabilizer and then quilt batting to make things seem more 3 D. Once the back hoop was on and all centered and tight I trimmed the stabilizer and batting over flow. Then to make those trimmed edges smooth I used Elmer glue to put rick rack around those edges. It works well to get about the circles as you have play with V design of the rick Rack. I have this verse on another small wall hanging I purchased many years ago, a favorite.

Embroidery hoops

Here is another of coffe cups. This is my personal favorite so may not use it as gift. I pretty sure it will hang on my own wall somewhere.

Trains

Had a panel of trains so cut them to size and sewed a border in colors to match the most prominent color in each piece. Backed them with stash of my Green Bay Packer material that I still have much of. These are tagged for the church sale held this last weekend. $10. but didn't sell sadly.
