Becky:s Trout


On Super Bowl Sunday John and I invited our friends over. John and Becky are part of the group that head out for our yearly fishing every spring. If something is happening at our house they are usually included. Becky and I planned dinner and snacks for the guys for the football game and we were set.

I asked Becky if she watches football and she put that look on her face. I asked her to grab a couple of shirts and bring them and we would play with my embroidery machine. Becky had worked in embroidery for several years before her illness hit her hard. Both of us were excited.

After browsing through my numerous embroidery files she found this fish which would fit perfectly on the denim shirt she brought over. It is the perfect design for her too.

She picked out the color choices and they do show nicely. She promised to bring the shirt to our yearly "fish out" in May.

Who says Super Bowl Sundays are a bad thing!

Nice work on the fish. Do you have to thread and bobbin each color? Or is it more like a serger?
