Embellish Your Sweater!

A friend of mine wore a black sweater once that was totally to my like. It had a big red flock N on the front, because the brand starts with an N. I liked it even better would it have an M on the front, the first letter of my own name. After searching for months I came to the conclusion that black sweaters with a red M on the front were nowhere to be found, so I left the idea of having that great sweater.

Apparently the idea stayed in the back of my head, because while I ordered a custom made sweater for my daughter last week, I thought about the black sweater and the red M again. Unfortunately, even the web shop that produces custom made sweaters, shirts, cups and more of such didn't have what I want, but another shop popped into my mind. Years ago I ordered iron ons for shirts of my daughters that had stains or had to be embellished otherwise and there I found the flock red M! 

The only thing I had to do now was ordering a plain black sweater. I ordered two, so I could make another one. And here they are. Finally I have my dream sweater!
