Wow! My first post in my Blog!!!


Hi! This is my first post, so I am going to say just a few things.


I have 2 sewing/embroidery machines. The first is a Sears Kenmore Elite. The embroidery field is 4.3x4.9, and I learned loads of tricks to embroider. I know the size doesn't sound big, but its big enough for most things.


I also have a Janome 11000...a wonderful machine! I can embroider 2x2, 4.3x4.9, 5x7, 8x8, and 6x12. Loads of stitches I will never know, and I just hook it up to my laptop & download designs!


I get my designs from many places, but my 3 biggies are: sewforum , Embroidery Library , & Holy Needle . I also need to add Artistic Threadworks to the top three, and make it four. I also float around to other places, as well as make up my own. Yes, I have done a few of my own...I have a wonderful program, Embird , which helps me. In fact, the one right above this post, the Pieta, is one I did. Mary holding her son, Jesus, after the crucifixion.
