Now that the school year has finished, I can set my embroidery machine up in the study and get some patterns stitched out.
I bought some tote bags – $4 from Kmart, unpicked a side, added embroidery, and then sewed them back together.
All of the designs are from Urban Threads. I used a medium weight cutaway stabiliser (two sheets for the dragon) and floated the bag. Threads are Robinson Anton rayon and I slowed my machine down (I used bobbin thread as well).
I have used the Pi design before, but the other two were new. The dragon design is very dense and I think I prefer a lighter stitch out.
I want to try embroidering on card stock next.
