Now it is time to add your embroidered images. You can choose to embroider each image by hand if you like. I like to use the sewing machine. I like the challenge of freestyle sewing. I generally draw a light pencil drawing on my fabric of the design that I want to use.

I choose this particular blue for the project because it reminded me of some of the colors I have seen in New Orleans.
