The squares are 8" squares backed with muslin and then decorated. The jacket is embellished with stitches on a Designer Diamond machine, embroidery designs from many sources, including stand alone lace, lace, ribbon, decorative braid, and beads. The pattern is a modification of an old Vogue pattern. I designed the front fans myself. The center of the back is from an old dresser scarf.

I have had this logo a long time and use it on business cards. My son found it in clip art. It is not my copyright. I was amazed to see it already digitized at Embroidery Library.

I would like to reproduce it in embroidery and frame it for my sewing room.
I do not intend to uese it commercially.
Did you design it yourself. It is really outstanding.
You are a most delightfully creative lady.
