    Beach Tote Pattern with Machine Embroidery

    Beach Tote Pattern – Reimagined from the Aurora Bag A beach tote doesn’t have to be fussy or complicated. But it does need to be roomy and easy to wear. The Aurora pattern, designed by Sallie Tomato in partnership with Sulky for our 2021 New Year’s Eve Sew-Along event, is a large bag that has strap options and a zipper closure, with plenty of space on the front for added embellishments. So it lends itself well to a beach tote “remix.” We’ll start with this pattern but change up a few things and add a beach-themed embroidery design. Then, we’ll have the perfect beach tote to bring to the boardwalk,…

  • Puffy Letters with Puffy Foam Embroidery

    Puffy Letters with Puffy Foam Sulky Puffy Foam allows you to create dimensional embroideries that “pop” off the surface for great readability and emphasis. Available in 2mm and 3mm thicknesses, Puffy Foam comes in all colors of the rainbow so you can choose a complimetary thread color for minimal show-through. Before embroidering, apply Puffy Foam much like a topper – over the fabric surface. After embroidery, tear away the Puffy Foam from beyond the stitching perimeter. It tears cleanly, especially when used under satin stitching and densely filled areas. For more tips on how to use Puffy Foam, consult THIS post. Puffy Letters What’s more fun than puffy letters?
