Embroidering a Bathtime Hooded Towel

OESD Embroidery Club

Date: Saturday, September 12, 2026 Time: 10:00 AM–12:30 PM Cost: $25 + design & supplies Skill Level: Beginner & Intermediate

Make an adorable hooded bath towel for your favorite little one and add some extra fun to bathtime!

In this Embroidery Club class, you'll create the playful Bathtime Fun Frog Set from OESD while learning techniques for successfully embroidering on terry cloth.

You'll work with the frog hood designs to create the embroidered eyes and face for your towel, while learning how stabilizers, toppers, placement, and proper embroidery techniques can make a big difference when stitching on thick, textured fabrics.

You'll use both your embroidery machine and sewing machine to take this project from embroidery to a finished hooded towel.
