Welcome to My Embroidery Hobby!

Hello! Welcome to my blog. This is the place where I do a little of a lot. I am not really fantastic at one thing or hobby, only okay at a bunch of little things. But that is what makes it fun! I am also a major copycat crafter. I find things I like and then make my own, I rarely come up with good ideas on my own. So Thank You to all you crafters out there who give me great ideas and projects to do!

Family Pirate Matching Shirts

 My brother Matt and his wife Erica wanted these shirts made for their reunions this year. On the front I digitized a design of a cute skull with crossbones and "Yar". On the back they requested "Farrrmer".


We made one for each person in their family so Hali (3) and Dawson (1 year) got one as well.

 I don't think I have ever had as much grief over a project as I did this one. First of all, I forgot to ask when Erica needed the shirts by and didn't find out until the night before she needed them and I hadn't even started. So I was up until about 2 am. I ran out of cut away backing, I stitched the edge of the shirt in with the design..twice! and a couple other hitches. Just one annoying thing after another. But I think they turned out great in the end.
