Mary I will show you a sample when I get the embroidery done on a big put together block. I will try to do that soon.
I finished sewing a coaster, and cut out a second one like it to finish for my youngest sister's birthday to send off Monday.
I also just went into the bedroom while hubby is gone. He had to pick up a few things. I spread out the front middle and back of a baby quilt, and sprayed on some of that spray basting. I did what I heard - to just spray on both sides of the batting. It is the first time I have tried that. Hubby bought me a can of it in with some Christmas things he thought I would like. It kills my back to bend over a lot. It did go so fast. The baby quilt is big blocks of pink alternating with white. Well, pink printed tiny kitties, and the big white blocks I hand embroidered cute baby type pictures. I like how it turned out. The quilting will tell all though. lol... My favorite embroidered block is a cute baby buggy design I found.
I found lots of cute patterns that can be used for hand embroidery by looking up coloring pages in different categories. My mother use to buy coloring books just for that reason.
