Posted - Apr 13 2011 : 8:14:04 PM So a sweet friend of mine from church has a birthday coming up. I started on a birthday gift for her, but found that it was just way beyond my ability momentarily. So, I started embroidery a quilt piece, as I know it is a pattern she would like, but I have no idea what to make the embroidered piece into. It is an 18 X18 square that, due to the embroidery design can not be cut. PLEASE HELP!! I was thinking tote bag, but it seems way too huge for that...any other ideas? I'll keep embroidering while you think up what would be good to make it into..lol thanks hugs jessie
here's what it looks like : http://www.joann.com/joann/catalog/productdetail.jsp?CATID=cat2704&PRODID=prd42823

Posted - Apr 14 2011 : 07:44:04 AM I would cut it up and make a tote bag. The center circle put on one side and the smaller corners made into random little pockets or even a coin purse to match. It would be beautiful integrated into a quilted theme of coordinating fabric.

Posted - Apr 14 2011 : 07:32:26 AM I like the wall hanging and the pillow idea too. being as it is 18 X18, it doesn't seem to big? I need to add a border which would make it bigger too. :D hugs Jessie
