Supply list: Janine Babich Life is Short, Make it Sweet Table Top Display

Description:  Find your joy in the little things, for they are the true essence of happiness.' Stitch a yummy 'Made in the Hoop' trio of tasty treats that add a touch of sweetness to life. Finished size: 16" x 11" when displayed in the Trip Tic stand or tri- panel wall hanger.  Requires a 5 3/4" x 8" hoop.

You will learn machine embroidery applique while making this fun and easy table top display.  Great for beginners and seasoned pros.

What to Bring:

  • Embroidery machine with embroidery foot attached and embroidery arm

  • Each Panel is about 5” x 8” so, you can use a 6” x 10” hoop, a 7” x 12”, an 8” x 8” or  8” an 8” x 12”.   If you use an 8x12 or larger, you can fit more than one panel in a hooping.  If you use a 9.5” x 14” you can do all 3 panels in one hooping.  For the Sew Along, I will be using a 9.5” x 14” hoop.

Fabric requirements:  Fabric kits are sold out.  =(

  • If your center background fabric is light (the 7” x 12” piece of fabric), you’ll need to apply shapeflex so the background fabric doesn’t shadow through

  • Fusible Fleece (Thermolam Plus recommended) LINK cut to (6) 4 ⅛” x 7 ½”  

  • Medium weight tearaway stabilizer is recommended.  I prefer cutaway medium or heavy for this project

  • 12 inches of ½” or 5/8” wide grosgrain ribbon – for loops to hang design,  OR you can make your own loops.  I did mine with 2” x 12” of fabric.
