The warm breeze blowing in your hair, the sand in your toes, the smell of salt water in the air.  Okay, well these may not be a huge possibility for most of us, but having a yummy drink in your hand, can make them seem like more of a reality.  Even if it’s only in our imaginations, right?  Today we have brought you 10 recipes for making a delicious summer sipper for you to enjoy while relaxing after a long day.  Most of these can also, be made non-alcoholic if you’d prefer them that way as well.  Go on, make a batch of one or two and have you own little moment in paradise.

Honey Baby Bear Applique Machine Embroidery Design – Etsy Review

This one is pure baby-gift sweetness. The Honey Baby Bear Applique Machine Embroidery Design from BabyEmbroideryShop is a digital download on Etsy, and it’s marked as a Bestseller on the listing. Etsy also shows the shop with a 5 out of 5 star rating, and the item itself has a 4.9 average from 18 reviews, with 100% of buyers recommending it. 

What makes this design appealing is how versatile it looks. The listing describes it as “a cute little baby bear machine applique design suitable for any item,” and the preview images show a soft teddy-bear style applique that would suit baby blankets, bibs, nursery pieces, or personalised kids’ clothing. It has that classic sweet-bear look that works nicely for baby makes without feeling too fussy. 

From a practical point of view, the file includes 5 sizes — 4 inch, 4.5 inch, 5 inch, 6 inch, and 7 inch — which is always helpful when you want a little flexibility for different projects and hoop sizes. The formats listed are DST, EXP, HUS, JEF, JEF+, PES, VIP, VIP3, and XXX, and the item downloads as 1 ZIP file. As with most machine embroidery files, it is worth checking your machine compatibility before buying, but the format list is fairly broad. 

There’s also a nice amount of buyer feedback here, which is reassuring when you are buying from an independent Etsy shop. Recent reviews mention that it embroidered nicely, stitched out wonderfully, and looked super cute, with one buyer even saying they would come back to the seller for more pattern needs. Etsy’s buyer highlights for the item include “Beautiful,” “Great design,” “Cute,” and “Adorable,” which feels very on brand for a baby bear applique.

The shop itself looks well established too. BabyEmbroideryShop is based in Adelaide, South Australia, has been on Etsy for 10 years, and Etsy shows the shop at 4.9 from 3.6k reviews with 55k sales. The listing also notes that the seller usually responds within a few hours, which is always a nice confidence boost if you need help with a file or format question.
