Antique Key Machine Embroidery Design Applique Pattern



I saw the word "steampunk" recently and wondered what the term meant.  My curiousity soon had me googling...  One definition I particularly liked is that "it is an era or world where steam power is still widely used — usually the 19th century, and often set in Victorian era England — but with prominent elements of either science fiction or fantasy, such as fictional technological inventions like those found in the works of HG Wells and Jules Verne".

There is a wonderful element of romance and mystery entwined in this trend as well.  How much more mysterious is an antique key and all the questions its presence poses. 

There are so many interesting ways you can use this design. Add it to a cushion cover or bed linen, a t-shirt perhaps.  Do you someone who's turning 21?  This is a perfect "key to the door" design.

This appliqué design is a delight to sew out. It features Triple Bean contrast stitching to give you greater freedom to coordinate this design.

CHRISTMAS PLUM PUDDING Machine Embroidery Applique Design Pattern

I love Christmastime!  Aside from the true meaning of Christmas, for me it's also about sparkly things...  A table set with polished silverwear and crytal stemwear; a tree dressed in gold and silver tinsel; the sparkling smiles of friends and family.

With embroidery, it's when I allow myself to go crazy with metallic threads.  Gold and silver metallic thread can change the most modest of designs into a glorious display for Christmas. 

Thinking about Christmas reminds me of Christmas Plum Pudding.  For as long as I can remember, my Grandmother had a tradition of putting 5 pennies into her pudding mixture.  As a child, it was always a treat to find a penny hiding in the pudding - adults would not be so amused, lest they lose a tooth.

In memory of my Grandmother, Thora Millicent, here is a Christmas Plum Pudding machine embroidery applique design pattern.  It looks almost edible, doesn't it?  It's perfect for adding a festive touch to your placemats, napkins...all your Christmas table linen!  A finishing touch to a Christmas stocking or apron!  Christmassy cute on a t-shirt or on a babies bid!



It comes to you in 3 Sizes - 4", 5" and 6"

4x4 hoop - exact size 3.92" x 3.15"

BABUSHKA DOLL Machine Embroidery Applique Design Pattern

I couldn't remember the other name for a Babushka doll let alone how to spell it. The word I was looking for was Matryoshka. If you are interested, this is wikipedia's definition of a Babushka...

A matryoshka doll, also known as a Russian nesting doll or a babushka doll, is a set of dolls of decreasing sizes placed one inside the other. The word matryoshka (Russian: матрёшка) is derived from the Russian female first name Matryona (Russian: Матрёна). The word babushka (Russian: бабушка) is the Russian word for grandmother.

And here is my latest design - simply called BABUSHKA DOLL. She's as pretty as a picture with her downcast eyes, red cheeks and heartshaped mouth. Change her hair color and dress her in fabrics from your stash to create many different looks.
