It's that time of year when we have to come up with lots of inexpensive gifts for gift exchanges. We usually try to find our best deals on Black Friday but, this time, all the stores are doing early sales. For a ballet class gift to exchange that my daughter needed, we found a clearance dance bag at Claire's. We needed to add something to it to make it a $10 gift so we picked up a sale PocketBac hand sanitizer at Bath & Body Works and I made a case with my embroidery machine, a simple Brother PE770.
The case itself is a file from Bows and Clothes. Using Embrilliance software, I added a file from Embroidery Boutique for the mini ballet shoes. I added it after the first step in the hoop.
I used a Kam snap to complete the case. This is a project where having a hand-held snap-setter is required. The space is too tight for a snap press to work. I used hardware from Mikri to allow it to be attached to the dance bag.

Hi! I love your blog. Do you mind sharing the type of snap setter you used for this project?
ReplyDeleteAmie, I used a Kam snap setter. I bought the wooden block for it from a seller on Etsy.
