Cherie and Variegated Thread

The metallic runs with no problem I set it on floor a tip I heard,  and it beautiful so I was excited when I saw it on sale. Any Way  I love all your thread . I made a bunch of crosses for my sister in Montana with Your variegated thread. I add a ribbon so it can be used for bookmark.

Here are some I made last night. Some I use the variegated in bobbin and some I just use a dominate color for bobbin and looks just as good. The blue I used a darker blue as bobbin.  Cherie

I love the look of the variegated for the FSL (free standing Lace) – great Idea!

Laura’s Steampunk Hats

Thought you would like to see what I did with your Steampunk Hats.  My twin 12 year old twin grandsons just  moved into a new home and for the first time have their own bedrooms.So i made them each a housewarming gift.  The rust color is Fairy Frost.  I’m not sure of the brand of the map fabric. I really like how the two fabrics work together. I love how the maps go so well with the steampunk theme.  Thanks so much for your unique designs. …..Laura

You  are very welcome Laura!  You won my heart with these delightful wall hangings.  I too love the fairy frost with the map print.  It gives a very vintage, but bright look.

Diane’s Review

I want to thank you for all you do for your customers.  I have been with you for years.  I can say 2010, but it may be longer than that.  Your site is one that is at the top of favorites.  Ordering and receiving the designs is quick and easy, which for me in the beginning was very important.  Not understanding computers, your site was one I chose to help me and yes, they did.  They didn’t make me feel like a stupid idiot, but talked me through the questions at a level I could understand.  I always knew when I finished a session, the information I learned would be in my brain and that made me very happy.

Now, the designs.  OH YES, the designs are wonderful and I know when I download them I will have designs I can work with.

Please know I love your site and look forward to each time you post.  I may not be able to purchase every time being retired, but when I can I definitely.

Sending you Warm Hugs and Prayers from a quilter of 65 years, owner of a quilt shop for 10 years and an instructor in knitting, crochet, sewing, quilting and help with just about any needle work problem.

Thank you again for all you do.  Enjoy and have a wonderful Mothers Day.

Thank you Diane – I have enjoyed our interactions too over the years!!!! Suz

Alta’s Snowy Egret

From Alta:

I did this one for me!  I stitched out the nest and twigs twice.  Once directly on fabric then again on tulle so it would be dimensional.  Free motioned the tulle pieces on top of original on fabric for thickness.  Let one twig hang out at bottom!!!  Then cut out a bunch of leaves and ironed them on like you had done! Wrapped finished scene around a canvas wrapped  picture frame from Michael’s!

This is absolutely gorgeous Alta.  I love the idea of stitching the branches twice.  That method could be used for so many things.  A really beautiful picture of the Egret. Suz

Alta’s Art Nouveau Stained Glass

When I asked Alta if I could post her project photo, she replied:

Yes!  I would be proud to share it!  The money plant came from my garden!  Lynn, my daughter-in-law, had never seen one so I made her a bouquet!  Vase belonged to my Grandmother!  They have cathedral ceilings in their dining room so this was quite at home on that high wall! She has given me permission to have you share it!!!

I think this project looks stunning!  Alta, you did a beautiful job stitching and putting this project together and the frame you chose is perfect.  I can imagine a lot of people stopping to admire that place in your daughter-in-law’s home.

 

 

 

REVIEW of BFC1360 Large Pheasant

From Nelissa:

This was the first design I ever bought from BFC and the first ever of this size in all my years of embroidering. It did not disappoint!! How gorgeous and detailed! The layers of colors, as if bringing the pheasant to life! The instructions were clear and easy to repeat, even for my first time of rehooping within a design. The stitching is museum worthy!!! Thank you for sharing your wonderful talent!!! I give this design 1,000,000 stars!!

Thank you so  much Nelissa – I’d love to see a photo your your embroidery. Suz
