One of my favorite reasons for adding embroidery to a garment or living environment is to take a look from a previous era and emulate it in a new embroidery design. In the example above I tried to recapture the look and feel of the 80's. By using the records and guitars from my "It's A Boy's" Life collection and combining them with lettering (Rock A Billy an 80's musical genre)I created an asymmetrical design covering the right shoulder left back and right sleeve. This is a design that is interesting from all angles: back, front and side. It is much easier to impart a recognizable look when you use lettering as a key.
