    Thanks! I was just wondering how you got them so perfectly round, since I KNOW that isn't easy. Just beautiful!!

    I use a travel iron and a piece of plywood over my ironing board to give a really firm surface, you can mold the edge of the fabric over the freezer paper with the tip of the iron to get a really smooth sharp edge to the fabric, once you have done a couple you can really turn them out, I wouldn't do them any other way now!! :D

    Thanks Jams buying, the label took me AGES...as I traced the words onto fabric, bonded steam a seam to the back which acted as a stabilizer, then used a stretch stitch on my machine to go over and over the writing....I must master the embroidery facility on my machine SOON!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

    You can see it abit clearer on this picture
