The white sparkle organza in the design’s appliqué areas are a subtle but lovely detail. Add some crystal buttons and you’re all set!
Filled with fabulous appliqué cutwork designs, including endless and cut edge designs, this collection has been created to be used with the Embroidery Cutwork Needle Kit as well as the Mega Endless Hoop 260×150/10”x6”.
