Becky, as always you add joy to our lives in ways other than sewing, quilting, and embroidery. When I watch you I feel as though I’m sitting in your sewing room and chatting with you. Uplifting.
Becky, I cannot thank you enough for always thinking of us “lefty’s”. The battle is real when trying to find things for us left handed folks...especially true left handed scissors, where the blades are switched and not just the hand grips. I am still on the hunt for left handed pinking shears and I have been for a long time. I simply cannot make the right handed ones work for me and trying to use them in my right hand is like watching a kindergartner holding/using scissors for the first time and I’m almost 51 (😂). Anyway, thank you again not for just always remembering us lefty’s but for all you share with us. You are an angel right here on earth! 👼
I was able to find inexpensive rolls of white (red and black available, too) mini pompous on Amazon and hot glued the braiding around the back of the hoops. Looks adorable.
Ms. Thompson: That spider's web design: If it is a oneline embroidery, would it also work on sheer fabric (done on water soluble stabilizer, the white kind ) Done all over as a Halloween scarf on orange sheer, black embroidery thread and a three thread serge on the serger for the edges! I think it'd be ideal! Twila Hixon
Question...when you said you could use darker thread on the outline of the lamb to define it more, do you mean the outline stitch after we trim it or the tack down stitch or both? Thx. Your videos are so great and helpful. I’m glad I just found you. Made 12 of these last year...6 grands and 3 kids and spouses. However, this year, I am making a set for me to hang on twine over my fireplace where most people put stockings! I love your thread tree idea too. My husband helped me by spray painting 4 in hoops w silver glitter paint so I didn’t use the fringe. I enlarged nine 105% and they are very nice, but I needed a reminder of how to do some of the things and your video has been so helpful.
I meant the basting stitch maybe ought to be a different color than the chenille stitches but they are all one stitch in Step 12. If I did it again, since the basting stitch happens before the chenille stitches, I'd do a different color and then stop the machine and change the thread color . You have to remove the basting stitch and it's hard to see when it's all the same color. Thanks for your kind words. :-)
So appreciative of this tutorial! I am new to Kimberbell so this was perfect. I'd LOVE a tutorial on the Manger! :)
Really cute xx
Love the little lamb, just darling! The fabric you used on the top is glorious!

Excellent video. Thank you for the great step by step detail explanations. ❤️

My mom is a lefty so you guys are near and dear to my heart! lol
Becky I Love your background fabric
Cute lamb. Love how you got the chenille look. Very nice! See you next time.
I love your demos, Becky! Thanks for sharing!
He turned out adorable! Thank you for sharing!
I made 1 or 2 of these ornaments last year and plan to make them all this year

I've finished mine - just have to find some of the mini pom pom trim. If not, I did find some jumbo rick rack that might work.
