Apples are yummy and so fun to embroider - expecially in relaxing RedWork. Stitch up your basket of apples with an attending bumble bee in
Turkey Red #8 Perle Cotton and finish as a small sampler wall hanging. We used a
Vintage Wooden Quill to hang our sampler on. Your Apples RedWork will also be super as the center of a cute little pillow! Enjoy yourself.
Trace your apple design directly onto the muslin with a
Red Pigma Marker.
If you DO NOT like to trace, use
Transfer-Eze. Print your design on the
Transfer-Eze with your printer. Pull the printed film off the paper backing and finger press it onto the muslin. Add you hoop and get stitching in just minutes - super stuff!
DMC #8 Perle cotton colors used: 498 turkey red, 351 coral, 437 tan, 780 gold-brown, 783 gold, 931 blue, 898 dark brown, 3346 green.
Keep ALL your Perle cotton balls save in our fun "Bubbles" in your sewing basket.
Handy Hint: thread a crewel embroidery needle with each of the Perle cotton colors to speed your embroidery.
