And by girls, I mean my besties Iris, Lele, Emily and my sister from another mister, Kim.
The girls were the first intended recipients of my embroidery work. I found a pattern for a t-shirt tote bag in the first embroidery book I found. In hindsight, I wish I would've found the normal canvas totes first, but of course, Joanns didn't carry them, but Michaels did. So annoying to chase around materials. ANYWAYS. The plan continued - t-shirt tote bags for the girls. I ordered patterns from
Sublime Stitching
Iris! Iris loves owls. Girl is nuts for them. So owls was a wise choice. I used the
Forest Friends Transfer

Emily has stacking dolls...and since I didn't have any other brilliant ideas, she better love it! haha. I used the
Dutch-Russian Transfer

Finished! |

Not finished, but better view |
For Lele, I went with
Scooter Babes. Let's be honest, she's a hottie who should probably tool around on a scooter :)

Kim, I had originally planned on using the
Bon Voyage transfer. Unfortch, they were out of stock when I went to order so I needed a new plan. Plan B was another scooter tote, since Kim loves Europe and Europe loves scooters. But then I felt bad doing two scooter designs. So I moved onto Plan C. Plan C I found a
Aunt Martha's travel transfer at Joann's. I also deviated from the t-shirt tote bag pattern and used a pre-made tote. What can I say, I love my sister from another mister! The end result was also another one of my favorite finished projects.
