Embroidering for Kids Just Got Easier!

Cute Machine Embroidery Designs ideal for kids and babiesWhen I design embroidery collections, I always think in terms of coordinates. Fabric coordinates make it easy to design and sew a quilt with a variety of print sizes and color combos in one collection. The same principle applies to embroidery designs—a single motif, a grouping of that same motif—large and small, or an embroidery ideal for a border. Yes, coordinates make it easy to embroider!

Seven Cute for Kids Embroidery Coordinates

I started by sketching what I thought would be classic designs for newborns to toddlers: mid-century modern baby toys; playful elephants; fluttering butterflies; smiling flowers; curious puppies and kitties; turtles & leaping frogs; and animated trucks. Then, talented Sewing With Nancy artist, Laure Noe, took my rough designs and made my visions come to life.

Embroidery Coordinates

I rarely just stitch one embroidery design on a project. Rather, I like two or three of the same motif on the design. For example, the fluttering butterflies motif has ten coordinates. If you look at the product cover above, you can see the individual designs. Here the options are grouped together so that you can see the versatility of the embroidery coordinates.

I’m in the process of embroidering a baby layette. The playful elephants embroideries will someday make a great baby shower gift of a top, pants, and bib!

Bonus Bib Pattern

Three motifs are included within the Cute for Kids Embroidery Collection that are designed to fit a curved bib. Download the free bib pattern, cut two layers of fabric, fuse interfacing to the back of the fabric if needed, embroider one of the three curved embroidery designs, stitch right sides together using 1/4″ seam allowances, and add a snap or Velcro closure.

Note from Nancy: I used a No-show Fusible Mesh stabilizer in the hoop and a Wash-Away topping stabilizer.

    these are lovely layette embroideries. You could add them to towels, either on in a corner or a whole row along the edge, with a co-ordinating washer and then a sheet set or muslin wraps. a whole bedroom of co-ordinating items!

    I have two grand babies due this summer. So many ways to use this. Both of them need blankets all their own. One son’s baby has nothing yet and if the other is a girl she won’t have either.

    Thank you for this delightful embroidery set. I’m the Project Linus coordinator in the southern part of Maine. I wish I had more time to quilt, but my responsibilities are with keeping our chapter running smoothly. However, this is so sweet that I’ll make time. I love the embroidered stars for quilting. I’ll be passing this along to our group.
    I’m looking forward to your quilt for charity in April.
    Thank you for your caring.

    March 10, 2015

    No grandchildren yet, but my beautiful daughter just got married this past fall and is hoping to start a family soon! Where to put these lovely embroidery designs, there is no end of possibilities such as crib bumper pads where the baby can view them as they fall asleep, and little embroidered motifs for a hanging toy over the crib too! Followed by matching blanket and towel sets, Let’s make it happen!!!!

  • Diane C

    I like to make quilts and bibs for the new additions to our family. These designs would be perfect for these gifts

  • Pamela Pope
    March 10, 2015

    I love these designs! Very nice and light and useful for may projects for a baby. Sometimes, I feel the embroidery designs out there just look to heavy and bold for a baby item. Look forward to maybe being able to use them.

  • Barbara

    Waiting for that granddaughter to make that sweet quilt!

    My granddaughter is in love with butterflies. I would make her a quilt using the design for starters and then go from there.

  • Kathy
    March 10, 2015

    Oh my goodness. How adorable. I have a couple of new nieces that would simply love these. Also, my husband has been asking me to make a quilt for a coworker who is expecting. This would be a great collection to use.

  • Lisa Latimer
    March 10, 2015

    Oh wow! These designs are PERFECT for the (many) baby quilts that I make for family and friends! With every pregnancy, I start a quilt and then personalize it as the “details” become available. It is a “must have”…

  • Jan

    I am so into sewing all things baby. Our grandchildren are ages 27, 23, 9, and 6; so not much need for “baby” things there. However, I like to keep baby gifts on hand, because someone in our family is always needing a gift, and how nice to have something handmade for them to give. Just think of the bibs, blankets, burp cloths, etc., ready to go.

  • Phyllis McCord

    I make burp cloths out of old flannelette – the kind that are meant to be used and abused – and I think a little elephant in the corner would do the trick.

  • Sandra Chavez
    March 10, 2015

    I love the idea of a coordinated “coming home” layette and blanket set. The designs are so sweet, not too comicbooky but really sweet. Thank you.

  • Phyllis McCord

    I make burp cloths out of old flannelette – the kind you are meant to use and abuse – and a little elephant in the corner would cheer them up just enough.

    Burp ‘rags’ are a favorite; I also create premie isolette covers that are donated to a metro NICU. These designs are precious for both!!

  • Bettie Papajohn

  • Gwendoline Jansen

    I make a lot of burp rags. It would really look cute to
    place a little rattle, duck, etc on them. I make them quite
    large so u are well covered. I like the fact that they aren’t
    real dense, it will keep it softl

  • Sally
    March 10, 2015

    I would use the designs on bibs, baby blankets, quilt blocks, and burp pads. They are sew cute!

  • Roberta
    March 10, 2015

    I love doing machine embroidery for gifts, both for adults and children. The embroidery collection for children that is being shown is adorable and diversified enough to make quite a few different combinations of garments, quilts and accessories.
    The only thing I would add would be a coordinating alphabet so a child’s name or a personalized message could be added.

  • Ilana
    March 10, 2015

    In addition to the wonderful projects featured in this post, I’d also like to embroider these designs on onesies and receiving blankets.

I embroidered all the grandkids and great grand kids’ names and birthdates on it. She cried when she opened her gift. (think she liked it)

    This embroidery collection is perfect for the sewing I’m doing for my granddaughter. She is having a baby boy this summer. I’m making gauze blankets and burp cloths using flannel and cloth diapers as well as a selection of bibs, all perfect for this great embroidery collection.

  • Paula Hendrickson

    No grandchildren just yet but it would be nice to start on some projects “just in case”.

  • Sheila Shelton
    March 10, 2015

    A baby rattle or one of the other designs would be precious on a little pair of pants and coordinating little shirt for baby. That will turn an inexpensive set into an original and one of a kind for Baby! Since Babies are sooo interested in their feet the designs would be entertaining and interesting for them to see on their footed pj’s or booties or footed pull on pants! I would also decorate fabric bows that I make for wrapping baby shower gifts!

  • Clair

    How cute! I have an idea, A set of features…eyes, mouths, etc. to use on stuffed animals and the like. I’m not adverse to doing them by hand, but sometimes time gets short, or I can’t get the expression I want.

  • Marilyn Longden
    March 10, 2015

    I love these designs, they are soooo cute. My son and daughter-in-law are expecting a baby boy the middle of May. I would love to use these designs to make bibs, burp cloths, and maybe even a quilt. When the baby gets bigger they would be cute on some clothes too.

    March 10, 2015

    I was wishing for something exactly like this for a little quilt. Had to settle for burp cloths because what I have for babies takes more time and material than I had on hand. This would have been perfect. Maybe I can get it for the next baby on my list.

    These helped me convince a friend to buy an embroidery-ready sewing machine. She has been looking at new machines because hers is over 20 years old and she just retired. She thought at first she wouldn’t use the embroidery feature, but with 19 grandchildren and one on the way, when I showed her these, she changed her mind. Wonderful designs!!!!

    These are so cute and adorable. They can be used in so many different ways besides all the wonderful suggestions already made.
    I can see them on nursing uniforms placed in an I spy fashion that helps to keep a child’s mind off of the procedure she/he is there for as they look for the 2 matching butterflies or shapes, etc.
    My daughter is a nurse and we do things like this along the hem of her scrubs top with shapes and colors. These designs would definitely make it even more interesting for the children….find your favorite, see if there is more than one, etc. Fun! Fun!

    I have a brand new grandson and have already made some outfits and bibs. This collection would give me more fun things to put on clothes, bibs, quilts and hats. My daughter-in-law is a nurse practitioner for pediatric oncology patients and these would also brighten up her uniforms.

    I would love to use these designs for my grandbabies. I basically for the most part only have time to embroider for them (due to health issues) so I am always wanting new designs to embellish their clothing.

    I am a beginner with embroidery. Although I bought my machine a few years ago I haven’t used it much. I just recently had to retire, so I have much more time to sew. I am also going to be a first time grandma in June (kids are all in their 30’s and I thought I would never see this:) I would use it to make a quilt for the new baby as well as a changing blanket and a bib. I love the delicacy and beauty of the patterns. Maybe this will inspire my children to get busy and begin their families. Whoever receives these will have a great time seeing what they can do with them. I as well as everyone here, would love to benefit from your generosity.

    These are the best, adorable designs. I can see them on clothing, quilts and bed linens, curtains and just about anything for babies and small children, boys or girls. Your quilt idea is beautiful for a little boy or girl. I would love to have them.

    Oh my gosh, we sorta just adopted this young mother and her newborn. She is going to be a wonderful mother to her daughter, unlike the life she has had with a father in prison and a mother on drugs for most of her young life. What a beautiful gift this would make for her. Nancy words could never be enough of a thank you for all you do for all you teach us beginner quilters.
    Thank You

    My nieces and nephews and great nieces and nephews are having babies. These embroideries would be so cute on everything baby and toddler.
    I’m in the process of making a quilt for a g-nephew that is similar in design to yours only mine has a bear and friends that I hand drew and digitized. He is going on 11 and asks all the time why he doesn’t have a quilt on the wall like I made for his older brother (a cat and a hat). I finally had to make one for him too.

    What great timing! I am currently sitting at home waiting to get a call to tell me about the birth of my seventh grandchild! Number eight will come about a week from now! I have a new embroidery machine and would love to embroider these designs on onesies, burp cloths, towels, baby washcloths, all kinds of baby and toddler clothes,and even make a quilt! These would be adorable on personalized birth announcements ,too! My daughter who is delivering today loves elephants and has already started an elephant theme in the nursery. She would love these and so would my new little grandson! All of the designs are adorable.

    I especially like using the embroidered motif as the center block in the log cabin quilt. I like this collection as the designs are light, not too dense.

    I just adopted two super adorable baby sugar gliders and I would love using this set to make fleece cage sets, bonding pouches, and sleeping pouches for them. So many different cute sets can be made! That way there will always be clean cute sets ready to go. Maybe possibly get good enough to sell them to other glider mommies and daddies.
