You have selected the perfect towel.............
and have embroidered the perfect design onto it..............
but even though it is pretty...........does the design look to small for the towel.....
causing all of your creative work to look.........
plain??
Sometimes, I feel this way about something I have embroidered...........
How about adding a small flower.....here and there......around the design?
Looks much better........don't you think?
But look at that bottom edge.............
But look at that bottom edge.............
How about adding a simple crocheted edging and then a strip of coordinating fabric?
Just cut a 4 inch wide strip of fabric, fold in half..........turning under raw edges........
cut it the length of your towel and stitch it on to the towel........
underneath the crocheted edge.
and your towel will look like this.............
the hen has been stitched the same way
and now the perfect " his and her" towel set!
This design is very pretty.........but once again.......
it looks very small on the towel ...........
but by adding a few small rose buds...........
coordinating crocheted edge and fabric edging...........
the towel has turned out lovely......
don't you think?
Sometimes the design is big enough or busy enough and extra things are not needed........
but there is that plain edge again..................
a coordinating crochet and fabric edging
makes the set complete!
It does take a little extra time..........but you can make your embroidery stand out and look more lovely by just adding a few extra touches.
What do you think??
I would love to hear!
