Did embroidering through 2 layers of fabric make it more difficult to embroider?
Did you like using the double layers, or was it more of a hassle?
Sorry so many questions, but I just never heard of that before!

Insert into copier the pattern that you want to copy, make certain that muslin/freezer paper is inserted with muslin side down in the paper feed, hit copy, and walla- ready to stitch after removing freezer paper. Works great for me. Good luck-

O.K. nobody asked but thought I'd give you the name of the stabilzer that I use when hand- embroidering on thin fabric. It keeps the embroidery floss from showing through when you
"travel" from one spot to another. It comes in a plastic package and is called
Soft'n Sheer Cut-Away Permanent Stabilizer by Sulky.

they have transfer paper, and a transfer pencil, I have had a tablet forever, and love it, you just trace the pattern, and then iron it on, you can use the same paper with the design on it, a couple of times. God bless.

What would be the easiest way to transfer these red work designs onto a piece of fabric to embroider?
Looking for ideas! Thanks!
