The design I made for my granddaughter's hockeystick bag was also used for a small bag that holds a pair of reserve irons And as predicted I had to digitise quite a few other names and numbers. Having the settings and parameters for the first it takes half an hour max and stitching it will be my daughter's job.

But there was an unexpected order as well. Two acquaintances of my daughter started as DJs and made their own logo. Could I digitise that. Well, I could but only after a few simplifications as it was very complicated.


Esther will show them the design and then stitch them out. Just as well my visit ends next Thursday :)

Beautiful digitizing and I know you have enjoyed being with your darling daughter. It sounds like you two successfully collaborated on several projects.

This amazes me! I am always so thrilled to see a design one of our Cuties digitized but I really am amazed at someone ( and please don’t take offense) in our season of life understand computers and programs enough to do these things. I think you do so well. Love the logo and I forgot you have been to your daughters. I wish I could have been with y’all to learn knitting😄 I could always use another pair of gloves!-lol

Thank you.
Love your compliment, but I don't really deserve it.
My father wrote his biography on a typewriter and every change or correction meant he had to do it again. So I offered to do it at the PC. I typed it in - once- printed it, he wrote the alterations and that did not take too much time. My son gave him a pc for his birthday so he could do it himself. His 88th birthday. And he picked it up ever so fast. I may be just a few years younger than he was at the time, but I'd started using computers in the 60s, learned and worked using programming languages like Basic, Fortran and Algol. And since then things has been getting easier and easier since there are programs available for any thing you can think off.

Guess what I have been doing today: buying more knitting wool at a factory outlet. Just as well I did not go to Norway by car. So I had to stick to just enough for 3 cardigans. 34 skeins to be precise. I had to sit on my suitcase to be able to close it :)

They got an awesome looking design. So lucky. Love the triple colors at the edges.

Thanks, but I had some 'polishing' to do after the test stitch.

We've been working together for years, knitting, sewing, embroidering by hand or machine, but the distance makes it less fun than sitting in the same room. That was what made these weeks so wonderful.

Great job on the logo. Your daughter might just find herself developing a side job, getting lots of orders to personalize items with names and logos.
