my creative space 'easing back into custom orders'

Greetings all,
Yawn, is it really time to do some work, some orders & some deliveries??  I'm still deep in school holiday relaxing mode.  A sweet customer at Shop Handmade had me applique a name onto a towel at Christmas (something Louise from Mrs Sew & So's normally does but she was moving house & interstate at the time) i still felt like i was cheating on Louise though - she is still the queen of towel applique. 
The same customer needed another quick name onto a towel applique this week, so brought in a towel & requested JOEY in hot pinks.  I thought i'd share it with you here . . .

 Making up the letters with a pencil, i simply make them 'ruler width thick' & about 14x8cm in size, remember to do them mirror image!!

 Picked out 4 hot pinks patterned prints & ironed on the adhesive to the back of them, then cut the letters out.

 Peel off adhesive, position & iron onto the towel.

 Applique around the edges, blanket stitch always looks effective.

 Da dah, the hot pink on grassy green looks quite cute, non??  It's what the customer wanted!!  I dropped it off to Shop on the way to the pool.  Mmmm egg & chive sandwiches reading cook books while the children swam, delightful!!

I bought the Poh's Kitchen cookbook without even opening the cover, just her beautiful smile on the front cover was enough to entice me to open my purse!!  I can only imagine if i had opened up this front page, i would have sat on the floor & gone through the WHOLE book in the store, then pointed out my favourite bits to the sales assistant (i do that, a lot!!)  I'll do a big Poh feature soon, the book is adorable!!
Happy creative spacing me lovelies, check out Kootoyoo, yep, My Creative Space is back.  Love Posie
