Learning to Applique


I am still working on my appliqued outfits for Rosy and Superman. This week's project was a fall ensemble. The fabric is a "bright" olive green corduroy with the letters in a cream, olive, and tan plaid. The stitching is done in plum. The kids wore these Sunday morning to our church Homecoming. III had a nice tan sweater with an olive stripe on the sleeves. He is very glad to be too old for monogramming!
My next project is an Alabama dress for her if I can find any houndstooth fabric. If I can't, I may have to use black and white gingham. Superman is also due for a Christmas outfit.
If any of my local readers know of a good source for someone who does machine embroidery, I need a hook-up. I really want to be able to do some applique and embroidery combination designs.
