Yeah, it is summertime and I am so excited to start a fun filled summer vacation with my kids. We are planning beach trips and pool time, so when I looked at my old swim suit from last year, I realized I needed a new one. Looking online I saw these cute bikini tops and they were embroidered! I had to try it and here is how you can embroider your own.
First, hoop your tearaway interfacing into your hoop.
Second, place the water soluble topper over the swim suit top and pin everything together. (The red and yellow dots are pins.)
Third, place your hooped swim suit under the embroidery machine. Embroider your initials. I used 2" letters to embroider. I highly recommend matching the embroidery thread with the swim suit bottoms. (You will need to use a ballpoint needle.)
If you are want to find blanks for embroidery here are some great resources...
Best wishes and tons of stitches!

Pinning Tip: I pin one side and then the direct opposite side. (top, bottom, left, right) I think that helps.
I did use Stitch Era (when it was free) now I am looking at Embrilliance. It is a mac program and can be bought through iTunes. Has anyone tried Embrillance???
Thanks for your comments.
