Robert’s Hummingbird Shirt

Designs used from set 1182C 05, 09, 16, 18,  30, 50 and from set 1001M 06.

This light weight cotton denim shirt/jacket by Levi’s began life in the factories of Bangladesh. The deep blue fabric looked like a perfect place for some brightly colored hummingbirds.
The leaves in design 1182C-05 have been added to other designs and only part of design 1001M-06 has been used.
When I use designs to build a composite piece, I always analyze designs with a view of using part of the design to complete my vision. In most situations, a piece of a design can be embroidered without first modifying the file with the use of design software.
I am disappointed that the bird beaks do not show well against the background. A taupe would probably served better than the black.

I still love the shirt!  The hummers show up very well. 🙂 I love your explanation of using parts of designs.  I’m sure many never even thought of doing that!  Thank you…Suz
