Cozy Fleece Throw with Embroidery
| This cozy winter throw is a great last-minute project. It took us only
a few hours. Embellished with one-color embroidery, it makes a unique and
useful gift that will be appreciated for many years to come. |

| The finished size of the throw is about 63" x 72", but you can easily
make it bigger or smaller, depending on your preferences.
You will need 2 yards of light-colored fleece, satin blanket binding
for finishing the edges and embroidery threads. We chose white fleece,
bright red binding and bright red thread for the embroidery. |

Embroidery

We used the following one-color designs from the Christmas
Section of our catalog:
Star
of Bethlehem, Christmas
Lantern, Christmas
Stocking, Christmas
Bells, Christmas
Ornament Lace, Christmas
Stocking, Three
Candles, Christmas
Bell Horn, Elf
on Reindeer, Christmas
Bell, Fir-Trees
in Snow, and Christmas
Eve.
All of them are for the Large (5" x 7") hoop.
Some of the designs are cutwork lace, though we did not make the cut-outs,
and some are one-color satin stitch designs. |
| Print out screenshots of the designs and arrange them on the fleece.
When you are satisfied with their positions, pin them in place. Start embroidering
the designs one by one.
We did not use any stabilizer. However, you need to hoop the fleece
very tightly and without creases. |

|
| After you make the embroidery, finish the raw edges with satin blanket
binding. |
|
| The throw is ready. Enjoy! |

Happy Embroidering!
