Willow Creations designs are on sale for half-off this
month. Here are some ideas for embroidery projects that are not the usual!
Add an Embellishment
The Love Sunflower design is lovely as is and would look
pretty stitched on a dish towel. Consider replacing the sunflower with a silk
flower or button flower and popping the design in a frame instead.
Make a Feltie
Consider stitching a satin-edged design like Pumpkin
Sunflowers on a good quality felt, then trim a quarter-inch away from the outline for a
no-fuss finish.
Cork Coasters
Fall
Apple would be lovely stitched on cork and trimmed close to the edge. It
would make a thoughtful teacher appreciation gift. You could also add a magnet
to the back instead.
Christmas Ornaments
Stitching Christmas
Tree Mandala on felt or cork would make a stylish tree ornament. When
embroidery is finished, just glue on a backing, trim around the edges, and add
a hanger. Stitching with metallic thread adds additional impact.
Gift Tags
Circle
Floral Frame would make a lovely gift tag. Just add a monogram,
then attach a backing and trim around the edges.
Beads & Crystals
Instead of stitching the red berries of the Joy
to the World design, skip that color and add red beads or sparkly red
crystals.
