and of course our extremely popular "Mylar Christmas Bauble" design

Totally finished off 'in the hoop'
As you can see from the images above these projects are made entirely in the hoop and are all finished off with a satin stitch.Take care with fire
There are few different methods of removing the wisps of batting left behind.- A pair of applique scissors- not the most effective and probably the most frustrating!
- A razor - once again a time consuming and ultimately frustrating pastime
- A heat cutting tool - made for this purpose and definitely the safest melting method
- A flame- now we don't recommend this method if you are accident prone or do not possess the steadiest hands but it is very effective, quick and cheap to do. You just need a cigarette lighter.
Please watch this very short video on how to CAREFULLY use a lighter ( click image below)
( we used this method on Tree Bunting for our Christmas Cottage and Tree bunting design)
