I have a tea bag design labeled RCTeabag; however, I don't know where it came from. Perhaps someone on the list will recognize the name and know where to get it. Sorry I couldn't remember where it came from.

And I would Like to add one very important thing too! about Digitizing.
All of those Fancy Stitches look great in a picture! But you will not get
that, when you open your software and look at the design, as the software
will force a default fancy fill! that your program has, and not the one the
digitizer used..
just like when you open a design and it has all of those funky colors!! they
are your default colors for your software.
That is why you should always make sure the digitizer gives a color sheet as
well..
So if you purchase a cute little design with all of those cute fancy fills,
and the digitizer used Art, or hus or anything other than what you have to
open and stitch it with????? then you will not get the same cute fancy fill
and they will be all gapped up and the fill will not be smooth and solid..

That is why the Lady said she hated all of those Fancy fills!!!

I don't know your MIL but maybe being of Irish decent wasn't important to
her. I think that sometimes the problem is that we give something we love or
that we think they should love. Even though I love dragons I don't want a
wall hanging but a shirt that I could wear every day would thrill me.

I too labored to make a quilt for a special nephew and once when I was visiting my brother was working under a car and asked my SIL for something to lay on...... Yep you guessed it. It stung but then I realized that this SIL had no idea what had gone into the making of that quilt and so I just made up my mind to not be hurt. For a very long time I did not make any thing hand made for her and then one day she asked me why. I told her that because my time and talents were so limited that I had to schedule gifts for each person and at the rate the family was growing I was not sure if I would be able to get back to her. She sat there for a bit then it dawned on her what I had said. She was very apologetic and the next christmas she gave me something hand made, Not by her, but nonethe less it was hand made. I know she was telling me that she could now appreciate the love, labor and forgiveness in our hand works.
When we give a gift, it should be from our hearts, it should not have strings attached, and we should know that the reciepient is free to do with that gift what they please, AFTER ALL WE DID GIVE IT TIO THEM.
Before my X MIL died I happened to stop at her house for a cup of coffee. It had been at least 15 years since I had seen her. It was also a spur of moment visit, No warning til I was a couple of blocks away. As we sat at the kitchen table I was amazed to see a trivit that I had made 20 years prior. It was a simple block of wood with tiles glued to it. I was so poor at the time that I did not even put grout on the trivit. But there it sat on her kitchen table and it was scuffed with the usage of time. That my friends made up for the quilt slight!!! Ok now I need to blow my nose and get back to work.

Another similar story - years ago I cross-stitched (by hand, of course) an intricate Christmas stocking for my new granddaughter. My DIL used it one year, reluctantly, and the next year made plain-jane fabric stockings which were used instead. Hmph! (EX-DIL, because 13 years later she and my son split up.) All my work and love were simply rejected. (I guess that hurt a lot because all these years later I still remember it.)

On the other hand... sometimes things you love are just NOT what the other person loves - different style, different color, whatever. So we have to accept that and move on.

Merriweather you can do it Since July I have lost close to 30 pounds and have a 80 to go I am in weight watchers and yes if I can so can you. Then maybe the kilt that only fits around my leg will again fit my waste LOL. My DH is as thin as a rake so no help there. You can join weight watchers on line if you prefer to go that way
