Custom embroidered pillows
The above embroidery is one I decided to do for myself. Originally I was just going to do my name so I could see what the color combinations would be like and what the size porpotion would be. I really liked it.
A couple of days later I decided to do something on the back. I thought it would be a lot easier than it was. I had to do each design seperately so I don't know the number of times I threaded and unthreaded the needle. It took longer than I thought, but I love it. It's called something like lovebirds. So cute.
A new client sent me an email and I designed this pillow for her with my 5D software. I worked hard on this one. I ended up using two spools of thread to get the desired effect I wanted. I was very happy with the effect I received.
