Machine embroidery
 

I took a class on embroidery M.O.M. from Nadine Knecht. She taught us how to design and make a Christmas tree using built in stitches on our machines. It was a very interesting class, and I learned a lot. Then she gave us the finished design at the end. I brought it into my software and changed the thread colors to white rayon thread and also sliver metallic thread. When I finished stitching it out, I added heat fix crystals around it and in the center of some of the flowers in the tree. I used a black sweatshirt for the shirt. I wore it on Christmas day when the family was all home. It was so pretty, and I got a lot of compliments on it. The picture is just a cell phone picture but you can get the idea. I plan to do more embroidery on another sweatshirt.

That came out really great!!

Very pretty! Interesting technique
