“Sports Fishing”
Diamond Club
At every event I
receive requests
for realistic animal
designs or realistic
nature scenes.
Among the requests
are for fishing
and sports fishing
designs. The request
is always followed
with “make sure
they look realistic.”
I take every
suggestion seriously
and this one has
been in my notebook
for a while. The first
edition of Sport
Fishing contains 10 different realistic designs for
the large hoops. Each design comes in a version that
is 7”x12” or 6”x10” and they all include a variation
for the 5” x 7” hoop. Most of the fish use appliqué
as a background to help keep stitches down and
prevent the design from sinking into the fabric.
For our project we stitched the design on a mans
sweatshirt. The designs would also look great on
home decor items like pillows and accessories like
tote bags.
“Fresh Flowers”
Mini Mix & Match/ Quilting Club
For this
collection I
wanted to create
designs that
used quilting
stitches in the
background and
were covered
with flowers that
when stitched
together create
long strips of
quilted and
floral stripes.
There are 15
unique blocks
that can be
stitched together
in unlimited combinations. Half of the
flowers are appliqué and the other half
are fully stitched. Both types of blocks can
be combined together. The designs can be
combined to create quilts, wall hangings,
bedspreads and even pillows and place mats.

Volume 17
“Teapots”
Mini/ Diamond Club
This was a collection
What’s more fun than
a collection of teapots!
Instead of designing
a collection of plain
teapots we decided
to fill each one with
a beautiful scene!
There are 15 different
teapots in all and
each one comes in 2
different sizes, 5”x7”
and 6”x10”. These
designs will look great
on sweatshirts, tea
towels, pot holders
or any other kitchen
accessory.
“Mylar Spring”
Mix & Match/ Quilting Club
If you embroider and
are quilter you are
probably like me and
like anything shiny!
We all love metallic
thread, shiny fabric
and crystals. If you
like those things
you will love the
new Mylar Spring
collection. Mylar is
a very shiny plastic
material that you
will immediately
recognize from
balloons you’ve
purchased at party
stores. You can
order Mylar online in a huge assortment of
colors. These quilt blocks have been specifically
designed for Mylar but you can use any fabric
with them. The question you are going to ask
is about laundering and care. I recommend
washing the designs on delicate or even better
hand washing them with a mild detergent. Do
not iron directly on the Mylar or put the blocks
in a dryer. The heat will cause the plastic to
shrink. I recommend doing a laundry test on
one of the blocks so you can see the results.
There are 20 different main blocks as well
as 7 different border designs. You can make
anything from a pillow to a large quilt using all
of the designs.

“Golden Tapestry”
Special Edition Collection
The tapestries, paintings, ornate furniture and
engravings in the Palace of Versailles in Paris, France
inspired this collection. We chose to use the dark navy
blue with the gold thread stitching for our project. But
you can be creative and come up with you very own
color scheme.
This collection creates a stunning
wall hanging that would be
beautiful in a dinning room or
even used as an artistic headboard
above your bed. This wall hanging
can be stitched out in five different
sizes. This would be a lovely piece
that could be passed down from
generation to generation because
the design elements are so elegant
and artistic.

Project Collections
February Releases
“Hobo Handbag”
Projects Collection/Platinum Club
Revers-a-Bowl is a clever project that creates
a practical and decorative bowl. These are fast
and easy “In the Hoop” Projects, that only
require a few seams to complete!
Each side of the bowl
is treated as a separate
appliqué. The final stitches
cover all of your raw edges
and create a crisp clean
finish. Then you’ll use your
sewing machine to sew the
panels together and create your
dimensional bowl. Fill with
potpourri, candy, jewelry, or
sewing notions!
“Clever Covers”
Projects Collection/Platinum Club
Clever Covers are a fun and quirky way to store that extra roll of toilet paper in your
bathroom. Each project has 3 panels that stitch together, leaving an opening on the
bottom to place over a standard roll. With over ten designs to choose from you can
make one or make a whole set.

Leather & Raw Edge Applique Techniques
Here at Anita Goodesign we are always looking for the latest trends in the world of
embroidery. We have noticed that embroidery on clothing is making a come back!
So, that inspired us to give you some tips for embroidering on garments. We also
have a product line titled Anita Goodesign Fashion Collections. Go to our website
and take a look at all of our beautiful fashion collections. These collections were
designed with fashion clothing in mind and the designs were all tested on garments
to guarantee perfect embroidery results.
Here are some of our fashion rules and tips.
1. Start with a quality garment
The better the garment, the better your end result will be. Cheap clothing generally
doesn’t have good sewing techniques to begin with and are made using cheaper grades of
fabric which don’t hold embroidery well.
2. Don’t be afraid to use your seam ripper!
A lot of the techniques we use will require you to open up seams and literally take your
garment apart. You have an embroidery machine that costs thousand of dollars don’t be
afraid to rip apart a $50.00 pair of jeans. Besides, ripping it apart is easy, its putting it back
together that’s tough!
3. Experiment!
Creating your own custom garment will require experimenting with different fabrics and
embellishing techniques. Don’t be afraid to try something new.
Applique does not just apply to Fashion and garments;
it can be on any kind of embroidery project. We even
have applique on four of our releases this month.
The Gaming collection has applique designs incorporated on a denim shirt.
These are the techniques that will help you with your Fashion
Embroidery.
1. Working with Fabrics
2. Stabilizers
3. Combining Multiple Embroideries
4. Using Templates
5. Creating Free Standing Embroideries
6. Standard Applique
(TIP OF THE MONTH)
7. Leather & Raw Edge Applique
8. Reverse Applique
9. Embroidery on Fabric

Volume 17
If you look at contemporary clothing you will see distressing techniques used often. We’ve
also been noticing leather used a lot in applique designs and in the garment construction
itself. A lot of you may be afraid to work with leather or don’t have any experience with
it. This section of the tutorial will show you how to do both leather applique and raw edge
applique. The design we are using is from our Glamour Rocks Fashion collection. This design
is perfect to demonstrate both techniques because it is a double applique.
The first technique used in this design
is raw edge applique. When the design
reached the first applique section you will
see an outline stitch in the shape of the
first applique sew out.
Now its time to trim the first applique.
Carefully remove the hoop from the machine
and place on a flat table for trimming. Use a
pair of applique scissors and cut around the
whole applique. The width of the edge you
leave will determine how much the applique
will curl or fray. Always trim a little wider,
you can always go back and trim more later.
Lay your applique fabric so that it completely
covers the outline stitch area. For this applique
we used a novelty knit that almost looks type
dyed. If you use a knit for raw edge applique it
will curl when washed, if you use a woven it
will fray. Once the fabric is in place stitch the
next step. This is called the tacking stitch and
it will hold the fabric in place.
Return the hoop to your machine and
embroider until you reach the next applique.

The first step of the leather applique
will be an outline stitch again. Once this
stitch embroiders lay your leather down
so it completely covers the outline stitch.
Now its time to trim the leather
applique. Carefully remove the hoop
from the machine and place on a
flat table for trimming. Use a pair of
applique scissors and cut around the
whole applique. You will want to trim
this closer than the raw edge applique.
The next step will tack the leather in place.
The finished design.
Tips for working with leather.
1. Use thin leather, thick leather is tough to stitch
down and cut. If you search online you will find
plenty of websites that sell leather scraps in dozens
of colors.
2. Leather only works with designs with a running
stitch outline. Satin stitch outlines will perforate
the leather.
3. Washing the leather won’t harm the skin, however
drying it will. Do not put items with leather
applique on them in the dryer, air dry your garment.

technique could be used on any project
of your choosing!
