This is a Crabapple Hill Design called Winter Wishes. This is done with crayon tinting. This was so much fun to make. This tote is a Christmas present for my sister who loves snowmen. This is a first time for posting pictures.

Crayon tinting is a technique that adds shade and dimension to your project. You start out by tracing your design with a light box on fabric that has been prewashed and then you fill in your areas with crayons (coloring) and then you take an iron with a paper towel on top of the coloring to melt the wax in the fabric. Then you are ready to embroider.
