You might be tempted to try using a chenille or otherfluffy, fuzzy fabric. Don't be dissuaded by the waythese fabrics tend to "eat up" embroidery stitches.Before the main decorative stitching begins, place alayer of clear permanent topping or water solubletopping over the fabric. This will keep your stitcheson top, and can easily be cleared away after theembroidery is finished.
