Penny Style Table Topper

I didn’t know how to tag this one because it is home decor, machine embroidery, applique, digitizing…

Another Project Quilting inspired piece. I don’t recall the challenge but it brought up pennies and this is a penny table topper I did as a last minute project (I know. Shocker!)

For some reason I haven’t yet tracked down, the blanket stitches were off center on some of the circles. I didn’t worry too much since this is a proof of concept stitch out and I was using cheap craft felt. If I ever get it figured out, I’ll do something more complicated in wool felt. Because I love the look but I don’t seem to have the patience to complete an hand sewn project like this.

It’s so bright and colorful! I like the choice of black as a background fabric. It really makes all the other colors pop.
