GORGOUS GARMENT

GORGEOUS GARMENT

Probably one of the most beautiful garments done with the Easy Punch Embroidery Machine. Showing it's marvelous versatility. Stitched on a printed fabric and made into a glorious robe. Stitched with a combination of two threads through the medium needle at the same. A fantastic blend of metallic and acrylic threads for a dedicated shimmer in the embroidery. Another way to utilize the Easy Punch Embroidery Machine to it's fullest. This garment is featured in the great book by Marinda Stewart titled "Punch Needle, The Complete Guide". Other Barb Keeling designs and garments are featured in this most enjoyable book.

"PLUSH PUNCH" HAND PUNCH

Before the advent of our Easy Punch Embroidery Machine, this beautiful craft was done manually with a hand punch, one stitch at a time. Prior to the invention of the machine 30 years ago, we manufactured, demonstrated and sold a hand punch called Plush Punch. There are purists that prefer doing the craft this old fashioned way and for that reason we still have our hand punch available. It uses sewing threads and embroidery floss and has the ability to do different length loops. It is on our Website in both the Easy Punch section as well as the the Cloth Doll Supplies as it is perfect for regular punch embroidery, cloth doll faces and cloth doll body embellishment. Check it out. A great addition when combined with Easy Punch stitching.

Any threads whether is expensive or inexpensive, use it all up with the machine. Cotton. rayon, silk, polyester and even one or two strands of your embroidery floss. WE do have on our Website lots of colors of the metallic and poly threads available.

And Don't Forget Monograms !!

One of the most important utilizations of the EasyPunch Machine is monogramming. Not only is it fast and fun but very personal. And you can save a lot of money by doing your own. Towels, pillowcases, Christmas Stockings, Ornaments and most importantly clothing. Do the kids shirts and jackets. Add that very special name or logo to work clothing and so much more. Shown is a garment with a name but have also added a nice design as well. On our Website we have many Iron-On Transfer Patterns books, many of which include a variety of alphabets .

"Bear" With Us For Another Neat Project

The great thing about the EasyPunch Machine is that there is absolutely no end to what can be done...The Teddy Bears were stitched on a tighly woven fabric in a good plastic hoop. And we carry the very best on our Website. Yes, it is plastic but it has legs on it so you can stitch all of your projects on a table top. on a magazine in your lap if you are travelling or on a TV tray as you watch television. The legs elevate your stitching surface to make it that much easier to stitch. Also this hoop has a "sealing ridge" on the inside of the hoop to keep your fabric "drum, drum tight" that is so important with punch embroidery. The hoops also come in different sizes, too. Back to the Bears!! They were stitched using a pattern and were stitched flat in the hoop and the sewn together and stuffed.. Really FUN, FAST & EASY.. Another neat project.

More Creative Projects

This beautiful Footstool was done with EasyPunch Machine using regular sewing thread. In this case it is Metallic threads. As always, the punching is done from the back to the front of this black velveteen. The stool cover was done separately and then fitted to the footstool after the stitching was done. Looks almost like "bead work". A very comfortable one evening fun project.

Some Fun Stuff You Can Do !!

This "Cool" Doll Outfit is done with the EasyPunch. Both the sweater and the Poodle on her skirt are punched. They were stitched with a "loose fiber" sewing thread and then brushed to give the "fuzzy" look. The thread is a polyester thread and we offer it on our Website. All of the sweater punching was done separately using a pattern we have available and then the sweater was made and gave it the "Angora" look with the brushing technique. The Poodle is an applique that was also done separately and then cut out and double fused onto the felt skirt.

What You Can Do With The EasyPunch Machine

We are showing & listing some of the fantastic projects that can be done with this great machine. The only limit is the imagination of the stitcher. Every one loves the EasyPunch because it is just that "easy punch".. Kids particularly enjoy the machine because there is no "project burn-out".
