and finally the finshed project i didnt sew them together so they can be adjusted
and now i am hooked so there will be plenty more to come with all kinds of designs.

They look nice. Did the elastic straps have velcr or were they adjustable with a buckle?

there done with velcroe but they can be done with anything i guess i just didnt think about till you brought it up.

one constructive suggestion. When I wear my hose and flashes, I fold my socks down at least 2-3". Only about the bottom 1 - 1 1/2" of my flashes show. I think with yours, none of the embroidery would show

thank you for that comment i will make adjustments for that on the next pair.

Those are really wonderful.
You don't see much embroidery of that quality these days.
Well done.

OH duuh! And I have one of those computer controlled embroidery machines and I never thought to do this.

OH PLEASE, MAY I STEAL YOUR IDEA?
