Fabric and Recycled Used Tyvek Envelopes Postcards made with Cactus Punch Design Hawaiian Surprise SIG128. I used three of the designs with sulky 30 wt blendables #7334020 thread. After I embroidered the design with the Husqvarna Viking Designer Diamond sewing machine they embroidery design was colored in with Tsukineko inks.

The benefit to using the recycled Tyvek envelopes (other than the project being green) is that they were sturdy enough to not use stabilizer to embroider and they used tyvek took the ink from the Tsukineko inks without needing a blender (aloe or shaving cream) like the fabric needed.

If you would like me to come to your store or guild to teach this project or technique, please contact me at allisonray@gmail.com
