Sublimely stitching

I started embroidering earlier this year because I love to work with my hands and I didn't fall in love with knitting. I stumbled upon Sublime Stitching which is pretty-much a household name in a crafting group. They have super-hip and happening designs that you can iron on. I'm also excited to re-purpose clothes with embroidery.
Right now I am focusing on Christmas gifts, unfortunately, I can't enclose pictures because the recipients might see their presents. Sublime Stitching has cute Christmas designs that I purchased.
I'm most excited about a new book they have called Embroidered Effects , which basically shows all the stitches, fabrics, needles, etc. My all-time favorite stitch is the french knot, I have so much fun with that! I made a Santa beard and mustache with French knot and I also embellished some cherries on vintage tablecloth fabric that I used for one of my plushies- which have yet to be posted on my Etsy.
