I'm BAAAACK!!! LOL!

Well it's been a long time between embroidery projects for me and only thanks to my darling DH buying me a Designer Diamond, I'd still be sitting here without an embroidery machine.

Anyway this is the first design stitched out on my new Diamond. A hand towel for my Niece for her 35th Birthday.
I was at first disappointed that the satin stitch was not very dense and by the time i finished stitching both towels at 4AM this morning I was too tired to figure out where i had gone wrong.....
It was only when i woke up this morning i realised what i had done,,, Silly me, I used RA bobbin thread on top instead of embroidery thread, only figured it out because I didn't remember buying white RA Embroidery thread, only white bobbin thread.... talk about feeling foolish.
The design is from Love's Embroidery: http://lovesembroiderycreations.c...
Thanks for peeking. Hugs n roses, Meganne

I know after I bought my Ellisimo in October, it sure opened up a new world with what these new machines can now do! Glad you're having a nice time with your Diamond Meg.

Nice to see you embroidering again after such a long time. Did you set up the other machine as well or is that asking too much at once? The design looks very nice, I collected them so far, but have not yet stitched one out.
