Nancy was kind enought to both convert Kathy’s design into all of the popular machine embroidery formats, as well as create a version of her own design with a “Yes We Did” tagline. For Kathy’s design, Nancy offers the following advice:

The finished design should be about 3”H x 2.5”W and approximately 57,000 stitches, so I would advise home embroiderers to use a good stabilizer and that this will take a little while to complete, but worth it, because it is a great item.

The awesome machine embroidery patterns that Nancy Cochrane offered for free on this site have proved to be VERY popular. So much so, that  a discussion ensued on that post, and another stitcher programmed an Obama portrait for use on a digital embroidery machine. This one is offered in PES (Brother) format. If you are able to convert this file into other formats, please send it on to me at obamacraftproject@gmail.com and I’ll post it here for download. Thank you so much to Kathy Dederich for this design!

Laeroport embroidered this tea towel for a friend’s birthday. We like the integration of the Obama logo into the “O” and the celebratory fireworks in the “E.”

This embroidered tea towel from flickr user jjjjo really doesn’t need any additional commentary, does it?
