Thank you everyone for your compliments. It was a bit challenging at first, i thought to myself, why do i always want to make things that drive me crazy LOL. But once I got the template traced out on card board, ( I used cereal box to make donut shape) then i made another one on tissue paper. Ok this is going to work out. I was very careful at trying my best to keep it all lined up as how i wanted it to be. Then once i traced it on the tissue paper, i lightly sprayed it with spray adhesive to be able to sew the lines straight and as accurate apart on blue fabric. Oh before i forget i also stitched the blue fabric on tear away first, with 1/4 " under, on both inner and outer circle parts. Then i placed the tissue paper over that and stitched out the lines. Then i stitched it onto the white embroidered part, and added my decorated stitches. I was creating as i went along, i kept changing my mind, lol. Had lots of fun, I'm real happy you's all like my idea. Thanks again for looking.

I really like your idea. It's hard to come up with new ways for our creations to be shown.
