T18 Have you ever embroidered on stockings/hosiery?

I have seen at the tradeshows for decades people sewing on toilet paper... correct tensions and you can sew on most anything.

Have you ever successfully sewn on stockings? I guess it would have to be stretched correctly then once off the machine and unhooped it would look a mess but when put on could it look like a tattoo?

This is something I have considered for years but have never tried so my question is have any of you? Think women who do not want a real tattoo but might like the illusion.

no one? I know I am a bit crazy when it comes to digitizing/emb but I believe this could be a good profit avenue. Think of all the tattoo parlors... not everyone wants a permanent. Think of it as working designs for bikers. odd but very interesting and for many just a "part" of their lives.

I have done socks. It would have to be digitize right so the out line plus not to many stitches to put a whole in it.
