    I did this today to cover a stain on an old tee shirt.

    Great idea!:thumbup: I guess if the stain isn't perfectly in the middle, you just make a bigger design.

    Some embroidery designs can mask small holes in the shirt too:>

    Thanks for the idea. If there is a spill anywhere, it must be on me. I have had to send some very nice Tee's to my barn clothes drawer, this is a better idea.

    Like the embroidery. What kind of stabilizer did you use? I am new to the whole embroidery thing and have a hard time understanding the different stabilizers.
