I had written that Judy and I were sewing for a friend. Well, we finished our "collection," shipped the box -- all 20 pounds of it -- and it arrived yesterday. Today, I should hear how things fit.
The box contained things we thought that she would enjoy wearing. When she called last night, thrilled, she kept asking how we could know what colors, what fabrics, what designs she would like and could wear. In other words, she was thrilled with everything in there. And we are blesssed beyond measure.
One thing we did was embroider several tee shirts for her. Knowing that she wore jeans and tees to work, we bought several plain tees in the colors that we knew would be complimentary for her. And then we worked out machine embroidery designs for the shirts and even found other embellishments that would make the shirts anything other than plain tees.
When you see these, you will notice immediately that I took the pictures before we pressed everything, but be assured that all was pressed before it went ino the box. You can see lace trim, beaded trim, purchased appliques, and machine embroidery on the shirts.
Next time, the story of the little suit I made.
