More important than the designs is having the right kind of stabiliser. I recommend the "fabric type" WSS, 2 layers of medium weight, placed in opposite directions to each other. Please take a look at the tutorials in Emblibrary, you can't go wrong.
hugs n roses, Meganne

bonehead, very good questions and real good answers. *4U Along with the ones mentioned, I also enjoy S-Embroidery and StitchDelight.
