So, yeah...like I said in my other post...I just found the embroidery boards here...I used to be on Craftster a lot, but not so much anymore. Just thought I'd share some things I've done. =) Just picking things are random. =) Hope you don't mind. I'm mostly stalling--I've got too much work to do! Warning...some of these pics are completely unedited...I don't want to waste time THAT much!

Hall passes for teacher gifts in Machine Embroidery: Completed Projects by smoon26

Hi all...I used to be on Craftster all the time, but have fallen off of it. I just noticed there were embroidery sections! YAY! Here is one of my projects I'm most proud of...mainly because I figured it out all by myself. =) I had seen something similar to this a long time ago, but couldn't find them again when it was time for teacher appreciation week, so I had to figure it out. The are all done completely in the hoop. There is a layer of peltex, and batting in there to make them nice and thick and slightly puffy, and there is a backing to hide all the embroidery backs. I used ponytail holders so the kids could put them on their wrists (they were first graders). The kids loved them...the teacher said there was an epidemic of kids needing to go to the bathroom all of a sudden when she got them. =) They have the teachers name on them, but I photoshopped the last name out.

Last minute purse for little girls Christmas. in Purses, Bags, Wallets: Completed Projects: General by smoon26

I found out like 2 days ago that my kids names were put into a name drawing at my extended families (we aren't going back this year <3 hrs away>, so we didn't think they were included-usually are, but I always worry about not being able to get the gifts back in time, and having a little cousin there with no present to open). So, I had to throw together 2 gifts really quick. I made this out of fabric I already had. Luckily one of my cousins lives in the metro now, so he could take them back. But of course they went back yesterday, so I had ONE DAY-yes, one day warning about it. So here it is...Monogrammed K on the front, Pocket inside, Matching headband (that takes just a minute to make out of scraps, so I always make one for little girls), and some matching ponytail holders as well. Hope she likes it! Sorry the photo of the inside is so bad, I was racing to get it all wrapped up so I could meet my cousin and still make it back in time to pick up daughter--barely made it just in time! The monogram looks better in real life, and the colors are more soft and romantic.

Rooster/chicken tote for MIL in Purses, Bags, Wallets: Completed Projects: General by smoon26

Just found out this year that my MIL likes chickens and such--who knew? Apparently the rest of the family! HEHE. So she has some funky specialty purse that she carries all the time, so making her a purse what a waste of time, so I made a tote--she can never have too many of those. She uses all sorts of canvas bags for groceries, books, etc. She is an environmental type! So I made this mostly with her many many trips to the library in mind. The little snap pocket inside is for her to keep a library card, or money or something. So that she doesn't have to carry her purse for a quick trip. I let my son pick his favorite chicken for that. And it has lots of pockets for pens or whatnot. Hope you like it--it's definitely not one of those "for everyone" bags!  Front Closeup of machine embroidery inside snap pocket

Customer order purse...ladies and dogs... in Purses, Bags, Wallets: Completed Projects: General by smoon26

Here is a new purse that I made for a regular customer. She always picks fun fabrics! Anyway, has the lady outer, with a zipper top, and the blue dog lining. The lining has divided pockets on one side, with accent of the outer fabric, and on the other side a zipper pocket. The zipper top seperates, is black on one side, and has the lining fabric on the other. The fringe is a beaded eyelash fringe. And of course my logo embroidered on the front. The logo should be smaller next time, I think. She loves it, and even though she picks fabrics that I wouldn't pick, her purses are my favorite of the ones I make, because they are so suited for her!! Thanks for looking!

Little blue purse for 6 yo girl in Purses, Bags, Wallets: Completed Projects: General by smoon26

My son went to a birthday party this weekend, so I threw this purse together as a gift. i also made a headband to match, and included little girl makeup. Her fav color is blue, so the outer is dark blue satin, and the inner is a light blue fabric, with ribbons on the outside to match the lining. There is a little jewelry finding in the middle of the bow. I decided to machine stitch the bow on, and needed something to cover the stitches (I hate handstitching--the machine is SO much easier!!!). And then of course I embroidered her name on the front. I'm loving my new machine, can you tell? everything has a bit of embroidery on it now!
