PET BAG DISPENSERS | ANITA'S EXPRESS | 285

Choosing the correct fabrics will make the designs pop!
Choose fabrics and threads that show your personality as
well as your sweet pup's! These drawstring bags utilize a
7" x 8" piece of fabric for the main bag, as well as various
amounts for appliqués. Choose the design (or designs)
that you love the most, then select your fabric and threads
depending on what elements will be appliqué and what will
be decorative embroidery. Some designs won't even need
appliqué fabrics, so you can just choose some thread colors
that look good together and get to stitching!
When selecting your base fabric for your bag, there are a
couple things to keep in mind. You'll want to select a fabric
that is either a solid color or one with a subtle print or texture.
Any fabrics that have busy and large patterns will take away
from the cute embroidery details that you'll be stitching on
it. Another thing to think about when selecting your base
fabric is what colors you'll be stitching on top of it. You want
to make sure that your base fabric is either dark, or light
enough to allow the thread colors of the design to pop
against it! Once you've selected your fabrics and threads, all
you have to do is load the design of your choice and start
making your Pet Bag Dispenser!
