Just had to say, wouldn't the new Pink Numbers design at Amazing Embroidery make a lovely alphabet as well. The design really appealed to me. I have heaps of alphas and just keep collecting, heeheeheee. Marg

Let's see, I have over 400 alphabets now. How that happened probably speaks to my addiction to collecting. So if you are a newbie, let me advise you to start some sort of system to organize your alphabets now, before it becomes a huge chore.

When I download an alphabet, I'm sure to put in the name where I got it, and if possible, save a photo of it too.

I have a Master Monogram folder. I put my alphabets in two subfolders, a Main folder and some sorting folders. First, I give each alphabet a number starting with 001 - 999 so you have room for lots of them. Then I first put them in my Main Folder. That way if I forget where else I put it or lose it, I know I can find it there. It's better to have break the Main Folder into smaller ones 001-099, 100-199 etc. for easier handling and you won't drive your computer crazy.

Then I sort them in other subfolders labeled in something meaningful to me such as: childrens, cross stitching, western, elegant, my favorites, small and tiny, etc. I don't sort every single one of them as some are non-descript.

Finally, I always save the settings as thumbnails. A picture is worth a thousand words!

You're right - it is a lovely design and would certainly make great letters. I'm trying hard to resist the Lion Alphabet right now and I loved the Cute Crow set and the Owl Applique set. Why????........... Is it the cheery colours that tempt me????

LOL! Me too! I gues we're all certified alphabet-addicts. I LOVE the numbers at Amazing, and so hope that Ms. Veronika adds an alpha to match them. :)

Oh I so agree with you there Marg. I love the little grub rose look and the two tone colouring. Maybe Miss V will follow on with an alphabet, I still have room on my hard drive for more alphas. teeheehee!!!

Maybe I need a new filing system, sometimes it is hard to find the alpha I am looking for. It does not help either having a memory like a sieve, but I usually find what I am loking for. Heehee. Marg
