A great thing about these kits is that you can embroider the handbag straps using Sallie Tomato Handbag Embellishment Collection, where you will get several beautiful designs you can choose to embroider your handbags.
Embellishment Collection Content:
- 20 total designs in 5 mini-collections
- Continuous embroidery instructions
Specifically for these straps, you will need to do some continuous embroidery, but don’t worry, Ashley Jones goes over how she makes this job a lot easier for her when embroidering her handbags. You will want to align the designs using the placement marks on your software, once you embroider your first segment of the design you will want to sew the placement marks on your stabilizer, now using the placement marks on your strap align both marks together. Another great tip for this process is to use our new PAL3 to help you align your fabric to the placement marks on the stabilizer.
