Has anyone ever purchased designs from the Embroidery Library? Do they have sales? I seen some really nice ones.

Thank you all so much for your wonderful comments. The site seems to be a real hit. I will definately do some shopping. Not that I need another design....but they have so many that I've not seen before. I've been adding to my wishlist. Whoppeeeee looks like a sale....love it! Flowers and love to you all :-)))))

Probably one of the best sites in my opinion. They also have some sort of sale almost every weekend.

I had an answer ready when I read this question, but reading all of the other answers it is about covered! I love them too!!!

Great site. Yes they have great sales also. Don't forget to use the "wish list". From time to time they offer sales on things you have in your wish list. I have many designs from them. Only had trouble with one FSL. probably more my fault than the design since I was only using 1 layer of Heavy solvy.

I did I fell in love with a design but it was too much for me, so I put it in wish list and waited for almost a year, i bough it only 1.00 and the regular price was 20.00 dollars of course i ended up spending more than 20.00 dollars in total. LOL

Register and sign up for the birthday club. You'll have a $10 gift to spend. Love the Library.

Agree all the way with previous comments. Beautiful desugns, helpful people and great to sew out. Cannot go wrong with their designs.

Yes they have sales. I love this site and have never had any trouble stitching out their designs. H&*

Yes, I do agree - they have such perfect extraordinary
designs and a lot of occasions to buy them at a very, very,
very reasonable price. Maria

There is nothing to say that hasn't already been said. I love this site.

All the designs I ever bought there have been fantastic,but it is too easy to buy too much!

I love the answers to this question!!! Sounds like each of us are guilty of spending too much money at Embroidery Library. You will save a ton if you sign up for their sales and make use of their sales. Be patient and you will save yourself a lot of money!! Good luck! Laura*

The sales are so tempting and hard to pass up!

They are my favourite site next to Cute. I've never had a poor design from them but I do use extra stablizer and have often enlarged the design slightly. As others have said they are very dense but beautiful. Their sales are great value too. I think this Christmas will be an exclusive "Embroidery Library" embroidered gift experience for my family.

Yes, I've spent far too much money there! The designs are wonderful but they are very, very dense. I normally reduce the density about 5%, otherwise they may look "bulletproof". At least they do to me. Sometimes even 5% isn't enough and although I know I have it well stabilized, I have even had to hand turn the needle up and down to get it through the previous colors and the fabric. Having said all that, their designs are absolutely fabulous and varied and they have many sales and freebies and great tutorials. Sign up with them and you won't regret it.

yes I have and they are beautiful.

Embroidery Library designs are really nice. I've bought a lot of their designs. Every once in a while, they will have a VIP give away set of designs, that goes with a big sale that they have. Suezz gave you an excellent idea... sign up for their newsletters... you'll be glad you did.

I have bought many designs from them. They have always sewn out and looked beautiful. Yes, they have sales often. Examples would be 50% off, or $5 or $10 dollars of total purchase, $1 sales, etc. Also, they have a couple of designs for free every month. Be sure to sign up for there e-mail. Sue *4U

I keep telling myself that I have enough designs and I will never be able to use them all..... Then I go to Embroidery Lib... I should know better by now. There is always something new there and I just have to have

Boy do they have sales. $1.00 or $1.15 for many of the new ones. Get on their mailing list now. You can also look at the tabs at the top for New, Sale, and Free.

I just love their things and have spent quite a bit there and never been disappointed. Their designs are quite dense (they sew out beautifully) so you need to make sure you have stabilized well. I also love the fact that they cater for all size hoops. They are also extremely helpful if you have a problem. Sarah.

Everybody loves EL and so do I...
all the designs are great and stitch out wonderful. I also learned something new, I had no idea that Urban Threads was a sister site. I love their designs also. More contemporary stuff, like for teenagers. but some great designs too. I've purchased from them and their designs stitch out very well. free stuff also when you sign up for their newsletter.

And mine is also just another testimony for a great site.

Be sure to have things you are wanting in your Wish List every so often they will have a Wishful Thinking sale and you can get things in your Wish List on Sale.
Muffy :)

You will love the designs from Embroidery Library! I have stitched out tons of their designs and they sew out great! They have several sales and you will love it!

Yes I love their designs. There are sales all the time. They even have a Christmas club ....from a certain time until the end of November what ever you spend there you get free dollars for designs. All Their designs sew out perfect too. Don't be afraid to buy their designs they are great! Suzanne

I buy there almost every week. Be sure you sign up for the 'VIP & Happy Hour' mail list. Scroll down to the link on the left of screen. If you make a purchase during the month you get an email for a weekend of super sale codes to use to buy any designs you want, usually for $1 each. You can save tons of money if you watch their newsletter emails and VIP emails.

Any time you find a design you really like just add it to your wish list and wait for a VIP weekend to buy it. Almost every week there are several new designs added that are $1 each too.

Happy shopping. That is my favorite embroidery site.

Yes, I buy there designs alot. They do sales quite frequently. The sometimes have weekend happy hours too. I think you will find their designs stitchout
great and they gave lots of great tutorials to look through.

Get on their mail order list, and yes they give you a birthday present. Everyone loves that site.

I love their site. Their work tends to be more artistic than other sites. There is a higher stitch count than with some of your designs. But they stitch out beautifully and perfectly every time. I love their work, and have purchased several designs. I do not regret any of them.
Click on the "Sale" tab a the top of the screen and you can check out their current sales. I've seen multiple times where their designs were $1 each; a very worthwhile price. I hope you enjoy!! I'm just finishing up two projects with their designs. Beautiful stuff!!!

I forgot to add that once you buy from them, then the next month you get a private "happy hour" weekend to do some wild shopping. :)

And I wish they had a membership. I would be a member.

This is a great site. Do not hesitate, there quality
is the best.

I want to thank everyone for the wonderful and informative responses. I've been window shopping and started to fill my wish list...If only I could hit the lottery :-))) Beautiful freebies.....

When you purchase designs for EL you always know it will stitch out great....the majority of my designs are from EL...the sales they have are fantastic....enjoy!!!!

I love this site with or without a sale tag.
This is the only addiction I would recommend, lol.

Well worth the visit, BUT very hard to resist the "buying impulse". Designs are awesome. hugs Helen

this is where I got hooked on embroidery designs. If your good to them, they will be good to you. They are the best designs I have found. They are from my home state and we love their wildlife the best. Some of the cuties have told you the benefits you can reap. You have to watch every chance you get.LOVE. Sometimes you can put what design or pack you want at a better price in your wishlist, wait and a good deal will come your way. Take a chance, its worth it. LOL

I love their site.

I order from there all of the time. expecially when they have sales for $1 designs

I have spent a fortune on that site! I order something almost every week and sometimes several things during the week. I love their sales! You can really save money if you watch for the sales. Their designs are rather dense but I have never had one that did not sew out just great. Deb and her staff are very nice people to deal with and go out of their way to help any way they can. If you slip up and re-order a design that you have already purchased before there is a note in red at the top of the order telling you that you have already purchased that design and list the order number that it was in. There is a continual list on their site of all your past orders and you can always go back and download it again if you can not find the design. They have monthly free designs and monthly discounted designs as well as weekly sales. They also email their regular customers with special sale items not available to all of the public. Some of their designs are rather expensive but if you can hold out for awhile, they usually go on sale at intervals. If I need something special for someone, I can usually find the perfect design! I have been doing business with them longer than any other site I belong to. I have had embroidery machines since the first home embroidery machine became available to the public at a half way decent price. I even wanted a commercial unit before they came out with the home machines but could not warrant paying that much for a machine to play with. I have 3 embroidey machines, a sewing machine and 2 sergers in my office/sewing room. Since my health got so bad, I do not use them like I did at one time but I do love to finish a design and feel proud Of what it looks like. My family loves to get the the items I do just playing on the machines and are always asking me to do things for them and their friends. I do not sew very much right now but I still have to buy the designs!!!!!!
You can not go wrong with the designs or the company!

Thank you...I use to sew before embroidery came into my life....love love designs!!

Embroidery Library is my home away from home. I spend all my children's inheritance there. Every Tuesday night they start a new sale. Every Month they have a few freebies that last a whole month.
Check out their menu. Sign up for their newsletter,
to get specials. Also, you can get instructions on "how to". I suggest you sit down and nevigate the site. You may want to sign up for your birthday gift too. Their designs sew out great. I love them.
Have fun, and happy shopping. Rachel

LOL - love your answer

emblibrary is one of my (many) weaknesses. have you ever stitched out one of their freebies?? wonderful! just watch their sales & you will find what you want CHEAP!! but i have a strong attachment to their sister site, urban threads. hard to describe, but wonderful just the same.

There is a sale tab on their site which changes each week, plus once you purchase you will get sent happy hour weekend sales. I have more designs from them, and spent more there than I care to admit :)

Thank you, I appreciate your response.

I have bought 99% of my designs from them. If you buy you will get emails all the time with free designs... and sales where the designs are only a $1 for a single.
Some of their designs are very dense but I have yet to sew one out that wasn't just fine

Emblibrary sell quality designs. each week they have different offers and as I buy often I get emails to buy other designs at reduced prices. It is a brilliant site
