Who Knew??? National Donut Day?

We had a great time having a play day with embroidery - all just for fun - with donuts. THIS IS NOT A "CLASS" per se.

Project for the day: Embroidered Donut Pin Cushions. Or whatever you'd like.
This is a free download (at the time of this listing being published)

If you are thinking of doing this project, get your free download from above ASAP - last year the site "ran out" of "in stock" files for this one.
Probably our fault, huh?

Also, the pattern will have the materials you need. Most of us got our felt from Hobby Lobby or Michael's in the past.

The embroidery design will put "sprinkles" on your top piece, but Sally went overboard (imagine that!) and she used some fun #6 seed beads on hers.

Here's Sally's From 2022:

Just for Fun Play Day. MEET ON ZOOM # 720 628 0542*

Attendees for the day will get a coupon code that is good for 35% off over on Joel's store: shop.sewmuchnicer.com

Project for this one:

The above pic was taken at one of our Florida retreats! Loren S. got her hands on a cute donut box and then walked around to give everyone one of these precious donuts! SOOOOO CUTE! Everybody, 5 years later, is still talking about these!

I know I love mine!

I use mine to hold my pattern piece marking pins... the donut is PERFECT for this!

So... I want to make a few for gifts.... fun, huh?

This is one day that I get to play on my Cadillac Machine! I normally don't use it when teaching classes, etc... I just don't want anyone thinking they need an expensive machine to do the projects we usually do! But to embroider, this machine is just beauuuuuutious to sew on!

This is a totally freebie day... we just want to have fun - but - the only fee that helps us out is the 99c registration fee for the day so that it helps us get a head count. (Paypal earns more from us doing this than we do... lol)

By the way, please check out with PayPal, if you don't mind ... you will still be able to use your credit card once you make that choice. They are just kinder to us over small transactions than the other option.

Don't feel you must do this project! Come and do whatever you'd like... or don't sew at all.. just come hang!

Embroidery design file - at the time of me writing this - is free here:
