Towel I just finished
(1)
Just finished digitizing the designs for this towel and I really like the way it stitched out. Again, I used graphics purchased from DigiScrapKits. Her art is so versatile. I stitched out the butterfly and Abby’s name when I realized that the border at the other end had a “blemish”. Although usually I don’t embroider … [View Details]

It’s hard to break the … [View Details]
