Okay, here is another go at embroidery before my embroidery machine. I elongated one of the stitches to make the flowers. I was trying to convince myself that I really didn't need an embroidery machine!!! hahaha

Can't keep off it now

We learn fast don't we. I like to get things done n a hurry. When I was doing all the handwork I would have 4 or things going at one time. *

This is wonderful work, you really can do lovely things with "normal" sewing machines, but I agree, the embroidery machine does it quicker.

Thank you Mops, and yes you can do so much more with an embroidery machine, but, then this way I suppose its a challenge *4u

Shery, this is a wonderful work. I got my embroidery machine only 4 months ago, and I can't imagine what would be without it anymore. We need an embroidery machine! :D

I did exactly the same thing before I got my embroidery machine. I did make one mistake though. I showed hubby and he told me if I can do that with my normal machine I don't need a embroidery machine. I soon talked him out of that theory!!!LOL
Looks good
