Well, now I think I have seen it all. Embroidery on TP? Really? It begs the question...why? (Don't answer, please. I really don't want to know.)

You don't use it on your bottoms; its for decoration purposes only unless you tear off the embroidered sheets and use the rest. I like giving gifts that people can't go into a store and buy very easily or even displaying them in my house. It's different and I like that.

My sister has a dog and a cat, so, I made some toilet paper designs for her. One has a cat sitting by some unrolled toilet paper and it says "I didn't do it" and another one where the cat says, "The dog did it". Then I have one where the dog is sitting by some unrolled tp and it says, "I didn't do it" and one that says, "The cat did it". I also have football, soccer, and some other ones. They are fun to do. I give them as gifts.

I have embroiderd on TP. I tore off 5 sheets and put soft cut away stabilizer on the back of the 3rd piece. Be careful of the design you pick as you don't want a dense embroidery. X-stitch works well. Stitch pattern, trim stablizer, and carefully put back around roll. Wrap with tulle and a ribbon. Here are my projects.

I love doing them. They sell great at craft shows.
Hoop tearaway stabilizer. Spray with 505. Lay 1st sheet if tp centered over stabilizer. Do not use dense designs. Unroll a few sheets so the hoop can move w/o tearing the tp. When done. I cut the stabilizer to fit the emb. sheet, then roll it back up. I then wrap the roll in celophane paper. Saran Wrap colored paper works great. Please do try one.
