Preface:

A purchased canvas tote, a fun embroidery design, creates this simple to make two bottle carrying tote. More than just a wine carrier. So many embroidery designs to choose from to personalize so to suit any gathering or gift bottle bag needs.

Step 1:

Gather all supplies and review instructions before beginning. The Honeyscript Font used in this tutorial is not a keyboard font. These are individual letter files. Load the letter files on your machine and use them like a built-in font per your machine’s instructions. If you have embroidery software you can bring each letter file into your software program and create a word per your software instructions

Step 2:

Find the center of the bag by folding in half lengthwise and finger pressing to form a crease down the middle.

Step 3:

Using your chalk or fabric erase pen draw two straight stitch lines from the top of the bag to bottom. Measure 1” on each side from the crease line.

Step 4:

Open seam for easier hooping access.

Step 5:

Center design templates and center mark.

Step 6:

Hoop sticky stabilizer. Using a straight pin, score the paper and pull it away to reveal the adhesive layer. Mark with crosshair.

Step 7:

I embroidered my first design ("cheers")closest to the sewn seamed side of the bag first. Place the 1st design center mark onto the stabilizer. Fingertip press to secure.

Step 8:

Create your design. Load your “cheers” design into your machine. The “cheers” design is angled so to fit in the bottle chamber. Refer to your machine’s instruction on how to edit. Begin the embroidering process. Once complete remove hoop from the machine. Cut all jump stitches and loose thread ends. Remove stabilizer.
