Nancy Halvorsen is one of our favorite artists to work with here at OESD. We met up with Nancy to talk about Ho Ho Ho Let It Snow:
What is your favorite project from your new “Ho Ho Ho” collection?
It's hard to pick a favorite project because I don't include a project if I don't really love it. I had fun in "Ho Ho Ho" with looking at a snowman from a different perspective; namely from above as if you were a snowflake falling from the sky yourself. Snowmen are so fresh and frosty and I love the bright contrasting colors.
What is your favorite tip to give on embroidery and/or sewing?
Most of the projects that I design include fusible applique because it's quick and easy. I always recommend that the center is cut out of the fusible web and just 1/4" of fusible is left around the inside of the applique shape. This leaves the applique soft and allows for some fun embroidery or quilting embellishment.
