Free-Motion Maple Leaf Embroidery + a Free Project for Fall
Give this Free-Motion Maple Leaf Embroidery a Try! Is it a free-motion maple leaf or a thread painted maple leaf? Sulky uses these terms somewhat interchangeably.

Plus, you’ll thread-sketch a free-motion maple leaf that’s as pretty from the fabric front as the fabric back.
