The next major in the hoop embroidery event of the year is Mothers day so I thought today's review should be on something that would make an awesome gift for this holiday.
Created and developed by: DigiStitches (BUY HERE)
Cost: $10.00 (US)
Embroidered on: Husqvarna Topaz 20
Size Available: 5x7 hoop
Instructions: Yes (In color and beautifully written!) - I like also that it includes a link to a free snap tutorial if you are a beginner and are not sure how to do them.
Skill
level: Beginner to advanced
Time taken: 30 min after fabric cut out
Stabilizer used: I used medium weight tear away
Upon opening up the instructions on this design it immediately shows you what you will need and at what measurements to cut your material.For my outside and inside pockets I used cotton and found this the best to use. At this point, to make it easier and quicker latter on, I just used a sticky note (post-it) to label each piece on what it's size was and if it was interior/exterior and pocket 1/pocket 2.
Each step of the Easy tea bag holder shows a color photo of what you need to do. It has lots of tips as you go along and even includes which color number it corresponds with. (Really handy if your child wakes up mid embroidery and you have to go back but cant remember what number you are up too!)
Once you have followed each of the steps you turn the design inside out to the correct way and poke out the corners. Give it a good iron. I found until I ironed it it didn't have that nice crisp fold in the middle but being cotton it irons easily. Lastly you put on your snap clip. Make sure you mark out where your snaps have to go otherwise they will not match up.
This tea bag holder holds 6 tea bags (or sugar sachets!) and a lovely gift either by itself or paired with a matching mug rug and mug!
