My hubby let me have one of my Christmas early. I got it a couple days ago. My Embird.... I got itch so bad and so swamped with wood work I have had to grab min here and there to see what I could do. After my 10 mins here and there I decided last night this is it I got to try and do something anything. So I drew poinsetta not even sure of how many leafs needed and next thing I knew YIPPIE I shout and showed hubby design. He said I guess you best stitch it out. Here is results I put on a remnant from a skirt cut off. Now got a new Christmas towel. Showed hubby he smiled and said it's poinsettas. Thought I would share my 1st embird.

Thank you, I am excited and have so many ideas I want to draw up. I need to teach me the stitches to find fast and think through. How to do layers I found that part too.
