BEACH TOWEL summer embroidery ideas


Beach towels with names

Beach hut embroidery by Alphalicious Applique 21 Items to Machine embroider and wear this summer on the beach

The three beach huts are perfect to embroider on a towel - both for adults or children.  The design includes the applique but not the font.  

Every time I see beach houses in a row, it reminds me of the colorful beach houses on Muizenberg beach. Way back when I was expecting our first daughter we visited the Western Cape (South Africa) and I 'overtanned', if that is even a word!

Why am I even telling you this?

Maybe, to demonstrate that we have an affinity, a sentiment with certain places, images, smells and tastes.

Some of us, store patterns from a shirt, rocks from a beach or beach huts in our memories!

Toothless and Light Fury are the stars in How to train your Dragon movie, but your little son/grandson will think he is the real hero with such a beach towel!

I could have chosen a shark design, but this design begs to be stitched out.

Embroider a few pockets and stitch it onto a beach towel. Add straps and you have a towel roll-up and carrying case.

Do I make it sound easy?

It really is - especially with the tutorial by Embroidery Library.  Check it out here.
