My Cooks Towel

Twelve months ago I got my embroidery machine
and  the software for digitizing . At the time I recieved it 
I gave it a good shot of learning the software BUT 
then I got a little sidetracked and  stopped using the 
soft ware for a while.
Now I have a goal of learning it completely  and being 
able to do anything I want . 
With the bag I put on my blog the other day  HERE
I learnt a lot while  making that pattern (and enjoyed it) 
and all I could think about was my next pattern and next one after 
that , so even though this week having Martyn for a visit because i 
don't sleep much I am in here at time when the two are both asleep.
So I gave a cook brick person a go at HAND digitizing ( not a 
fan of the button on the software that  does it for you (as it 
does not do a great job of over laps and tracing ))
Here is  the towel I made 
 I am soo amazed that with lots of planing in the designing
that the image only took 30 minutes to sew and it is 
way softer and neater than the ones that I was designing back 
twelve months ago



I am looking forward to hearing what you all think of this effort .
I am working on a few more  (OK a lot more) things 
that I will be showing  soon  (yes as well as I will be showing 
my pop ups I am working on too  I have not got sidetracked 
from Pop up card studio )
By the way  for those that don't know that Martyn is a 
Chef and I made this for him!
