FREEBIE for December is Ready to Print

Visit our Website and print out the last FREEBIE Design for 2012.  This month you can Embroider the elegant Persimmon on a Sage Green Tea Towel.

This pretty fruit originated in China and Japan. 
It makes some yummy stuff and can be eaten just as it is.  A Very pretty and colorful dessert.

Enjoy stitching your last FREE design adding to the other 11 Fruit and Veggie designs throughout the year.
Visit the Free Design Category on our Website to print and stitch all 12 FREE designs.

As usual,  I printed my Persimmon on Sticky Fabri-Solvy so I could VERY easily get the design on  my Tea Towel.

Fast to get on the fabric and easy to see as I embroidered.  I dissolved the Fabri-Solvy away in the sink with warm water flowing on the towel.  I find a little “aggression” rather than passive soaking gets the film and printer ink floating away down the sink.

Get printing and then stitching for some great Holiday Hostess Gifts this year.  FUN and NOT expensive!

Happy Stitching, everyone.  Robin

New Christmas Freebie for you

It is now only 25 days to the BIG Christmas Day.  Whip up a few tea towels or make ornaments with our December Freebie design . I embroidered Santa holding a mini Christmas tree on a Sage Green striped tea towel.  He only took a couple of hours one night to complete.  A hint for you to speed your embroidery.  Thread a crewel embroidery needle for each of the colors in your design.  You won’t always be pulling the thread out and changing color.  This little cutie would make a great ornament too.  Just do the embroidery on muslin and finish in your favorite way.  FUN! I used our handy dandy Transfer-Eze to print the Freebie Santa and finger press on our Dunroven House tea towel.  The Freebie design can be put on your light box to trace directly onto the fabric – BUT – toweling is a little thicker and rougher than muslin.  Using Transfer-Eze solves the problem.  The smooth Transfer-Eze film put on your towel gives you a nice de...

Transfer-Eze Embroidery Magic

Lots of us have been having a wonderful time using Transfer-Eze , the NEW water soluble film on paper backing you can use with your printer.  Instead of the tedious task of tracing embroidery designs onto fabric you can print the design on the Transfer-Eze. I printed a snowmen for a new design twice – one for Embroidery and one for Needle Felting on wool fabric.  Just pull the Transfer-Eze film off the paper backing.  To conserve the paper, I cut off one snowman and still have 2/3 of the paper left to print on again later! Dark fabrics are nearly impossible to trace an embroidery design on as the light from your light box doesn’t go through the dark fabric.  Transfer-Eze is just the ticket!   Finger press your printed design on the dark fabric.  I found the Transfer-Eze adhered better to the fabric after the fabric was washed to remove the sizing. The printed design shows beautifully on the film pressed on the dark red fabric. This is going to be EASY t...
