Have you seen these incredibly neat Stitchable Bracelets by DMC? They are super fun and so easy to stitch. They measure about 1.5 inches wide and come in several colors. They have a perforated section in the middle so you can add your own personalized design. The pre-punched holes really lend themselves well to cross-stitch designs.
Since I'm more of a freehand style embroiderer, I decided to grab a few skeins of my new beautiful DMC Coloris floss and just freehand a pseudo-cross-stitchy design. Instead of filing up the whole design space with stitches, I left some blank space to let the design pop. I love how this worked with the Coloris floss, since it's multicolored and mixes four different shades together, it had a nice effect with my design without having to grab a new color of floss.
Can't wait to see how my fellow stitchers will be using these cool bracelets!
