Another chicken digitized and stitched! I can only hope that this roll that I'm on will continue through this year. Plus it helps that these Fat Cat Patterns are large enough to digitize easily.
I had an Aha moment today, quickly followed by a huge Duh moment! Some of the decorative stitches weren't showing up well and I've been backing up the stitch sequence and repeating the stitch to give it a heavier appearance. Then I remembered I've got all this colorful heavier weight quilting thread! I tried it on one section of this block and it embroiders very nicely. It doesn't have the shine of the polyester embroidery thread, but I think I'll like it. Next month's block will have decorative stitches in quilting thread.
Hi Sue (remember me from the Hatched event in Temple?) I like the heavier stitching too. Gives the chicken some texture! Cheryl S.
ReplyDeleteHello, Cheryl!! Choosing the stitches is the most fun. I'm learning that if I think they look large enough, I should make them a little larger! haha
ReplyDeleteVery nice work Sue - its an inspiration. I love to digitize too.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Happygirl! It's fun to play around with my digitizing softwares.
