Marge’s Beautiful Heron

From Marge:

*Hi Suz,

Finally got the Herron put on a shirt.  I did do it on the nylon mesh and maybe some of the feathers didn’t come out quite right but I am happy with it.

I am always afraid to embroider right on a garment.  This shirt was a little pricey and I would have been upset if the design screwed up.  This way if I get tired of the shirt I can remove the embroidery and put it on something else.

Thought you would like to see it done this way.

I would never have guess this design came out so great using this method!  I’m in awe of some of your work Marge. 🙂  Suz

Jan’s Beautiful Work!

Jan has been a customer and friend for a long time.  I was so happy to hear from her on my Yahoo Group! She writes:

“Hi Suz,

I am still using many of your picture designs – love doing them.  This past 9 months has been a tough time for Marty and I.  He had 4 major cancer surgeries removing a kidney, tumor, bladder and prostate.  But after going through all this he is back in his pulpit preaching, helping with our golden retriever kennel and mowing 2 acres of lawn.  God has certainly blessed us and answered prayers.

Here are some pictures – mostly the older ones.  People who come to my studio just love them.

Jan ”

I think my favorite picture is to see Jan in her studio among her projects! Suz

An unusual, but beautiful use for some designs!

“Hi Suz

Here are two pics from a Custom Clergy Stole I did, where the customer asked for a cactus and sunset, and I knew just what designs to go to!

Deborah”

Very Creative Deborah!  I bet he was very pleased.  I couldn’t place the cactus at first – I knew I did it, but I found it finally – it’s part of a Windows set.  As i said – very creative!

Cindy’s Projects

From Cindy: “I thought you might like to see “shades of tangled animals.”I was thinking of entering it in a quilt contest.  I don’t know which one, but I would give credit to BFC for the embroidery art.

Would that be OK? ”

It certainly would be OK Cindy!  I love this quilt.  The animals really show up so well with the colors chosen.

Good luck in the contest Cindy!  Let us know 🙂

Cindy’s other project is one Of Ching Chous pictures.  A beautiful addition to the room.  The border sashing goes so well with the embroidery.

Evelyn’s Cat Empress

Evelyn has stitched one of my favorite designs.  And I’m so impressed – she did this after a long illness and it’s her first design getting back to stitching.  All of her things are now in storage and she is in Arizona with her son.  She can’t wait to get more stitching done!! She’s already picked out her next pictures.  Thank you Evelyn and best wishes for your recovery.
