I spent a HUGE chunk of time making 2 burp clothes. . .mind you, originally the plan was 4. The large letter in the background of each took over 40 minutes apiece. This was not counting the hour I spent dealing with computer problems on my monogramming software or the 10 times my thread broke on the B. I tried everything, even replaced my needle, praying, saying choice words, yelling "You've got to be kidding me" or "For Pete's Sake" . I finally slowed down my stitch and that helped. . .but again, it was SLOW. I was pleased with the end projects though, they are cute. Two separate friends. . .Mason (boy), Bradlie (girl).
All I can say is, I am relieved they are done.
you're on a roll! keep it up
ReplyDeleteThose turned out wonderfully - I do know how frustrating it is when they stitch out so slowly though! And all the thread breaks too, yikes.
ReplyDeleteYou did a GREAT job !!! Those are DARLING !!!! (and we really didn't hear you cursing or anything .... and we're right down the street from you here in Blogland )
ReplyDeleteP.S. Thanks, as always, for visiting my blog and for your sweet comment!
They're adorable! It always cracks me up when people look at machine embroidery and act like it was SO easy -- Yeah, it's not manual labor or anything, but it's time consuming to set all that stuff up!!!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness they are darling! I have yet to figure out the embroidery module on my machine LOL
ReplyDeleteWell, you wouldn't know how many problems you had by the way they look. They are great!
ReplyDeleteWOW - they turned out wonderful! I believe that machine embroidery looks much easier than it is.
ReplyDeleteOh they are so cute!
ReplyDeleteThey are just great! You sound like me when I have a thread break. I am sure you are glad they are done and they will be loved....mmmm.... burped upon! LOL!
ReplyDeleteLOVE THEM! You're my inspiration for all things embroidered. Curse all you want, I know it's not easy to do... computerized or not!
ReplyDeleteToo cute to burp on!!!
ReplyDeletewhat gorgeous gifts! I had no idea that machine embroidery was so time consuming - well worth the effort though!
ReplyDeleteThose are TOO CUTE! Sorry to hear they were such a pain -- I hate days like that -- but, love the finished product!
