The designs used in this tutorial include:
X5410, Crocus Pot Holder (In-the-Hoop)
X13736, Reindeer Pot Holder (In-the-Hoop)
Special note:
There are different
versions of the in-the-hoop potholders, and
some have more dielines and steps than
others. Be sure to look over your chosen
embroidery file carefully, and watch for
extra decorative steps such as applique and
stiff felt pieces. Follow the color change
sheet, and add these embellishments when
instructed. The applique pieces should be
placed after their corresponding dielines
are sewn, and the stiff felt pieces get
taped in place before sewing the inner
borders.
