For Christmas my husband bought me an embroidery sewing machine. I have been so excited to use it. This weekend I finally figured it out enough to start on my first project.
For my first project I wanted to make monogrammed pillows.
I bought four napkins from Home Goods.
I took each napkin and ironed them (this is before I ironed them).
Then using my new embroidery sewing machine, I created my design.
I started simple with a single initial.
I used brown embroidery thread for the initial.
Then I decided to hand sew the top and the bottom together using a whip stitch.
For the second pillow I wanted to try something a little different.
Again I embroidered the "K" but then added a frame around it. I guess I need to be more careful to check the design on the computer before I send it to the sewing machine.
It's not exactly centered around the "K".
What do you think?
Not bad for my first attempt. I have plans for so many more projects.
I hope for my next project to try multiple colors.
Don't forget there is still time to enter my MirrorMate frame giveaway.

Beautiful pillow Judy! You are going to have some fun with your new toy!
I think they came out great, Judy! Great choice for initial, too! : ) I've got an embroidery/sewing machine on my list of things to get ~ eventually. I'm still looking into reviews or I would have gotten it for Christmas. I was looking at a Brother model. Meanwhile, I get by for sewing with my 25 year old Singer!

What a fun machine! The possibilities are endless; you could tweak your design a hundred ways.Great that you made a decision and tried it. I often get lost in the "what if" part of the project. Jo @ Let's Face the Music
Nice job!
I like the one with the little bit of design best.

Gorgeous! I've always wanted a set of monogrammed sheets.
They look great! I bet you're going to have alot of fun with that new machine.
Just tell everyone that you planned to have the "K" off-center, because having it centered would make them less of a conversation piece!!!
They look great!
Awesome sewing machine! Love the initial. Napkins...a great idea for a pillow.
Your first attempt with the 2 pillows is great and you will have fun using your machine for more projects.
