White Blouse Project Embroidery Project

The first step was to choose a suitable pattern to layout the embroidery upon. I chose a simple shell pattern. Although the cut of this pattern is different in the neckline and armhole, I can adjust it to the specific garment when I hoop it. Because the garment that I am embroidering upon buttons up the front I have to divide my design into two separate designs. My sewing field is large enough to accommodate to larger design on the left ( as you can see in illustration to the right). If yours is not, you would have to divide it up into probably 3 separate designs which would be hooped separately but abut each other.
