<br />
The bags are simply constructed to measure approx. 12" x 15" finished size. We used samples from a furniture store that showed fabric choices for upholstery. The grommets in the top worked great to attach handles! We embellished the front of the bag before sewing / serging the sides & bottom. Some have front pockets attached, some have ribbons, couching, beading, fringe. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder! The main idea is to have fun creating the bag!<br />

It has great piercing power and makes quick work of this part!<br />

What an easy way to make sure those seams are secure! No worries about fraying or unraveling!<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">It'll hold ten different colors of embroidery threads and sew in succession without stopping!</div><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Aren't these threads bright and beautiful? They're Floriani brand and made especially for machine embroidery. I've loaded the jacket onto a hoop filled with stabilizer, but the jacket isn't in the hoop, it's laying on top, so I secured it down by running a basting stitch all the way around.</div><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I've chosen to embroider a built-in peacock design, so after pressing a button, the machine does all the work!</div><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I've placed a special stabilizer called "topping" over the jacket which will keep the threads from sinking down into the thick, waffle-weave fabric.</div><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Once the embroidery machine has completed its job, it's time to remove the topping, which goes quickly with a little help from a friend!</div><br />
