Embrilliance! I have been learning this digitizing system and it has been hard for me. I could do most anything I wanted in PE Design5, but it would not work on my new Mac. (I didn't want to do Parallels again - ugh). So now I'm at the place where I c
I am wanting to stitch some of Yoriko's adorable little zip purses. So miss her so much! Do any of you have the directions for any? I think they are pretty much the same for most of them.... I have the designs, just need the directions. I used to ju
I suddenly realized that in all my stash, I didn't have any purple, lilac, lavender - any of those. So we stopped at Walmart and they had a fabric sale going on with Spring fabrics. So, now I have some purples! Yeah on sales!
Our dear Cuties without enough heat, and enough cool too! I hope everyone can withstand all the extremes. We have heard in Texas the electricity can't keep up with the need! Where we live in Colorado, the temps have dipped well below zero F (as lo
Do you think it is worth it to pay extra to buy Titanium embroidery needles? These are $8 for 4 needles.
This is one of the pincushions I made for my nieces. Their Mom died when they were 2.5, 5 and 7, and she loved red checked gingham. She had also made things for the girls where each had their color: Red for Maggie, Pink for Betsy and Yellow for Anna. S
I made two bags, each for mother friends of other kids with special needs. Each of the kids uses a wheelchair. They wanted bags with lots of pockets, inside and out. So, pockets they got. I put a zipper at the top in case they wanted to close them, but
FSL Chicken Doilies. These came from Embroidery Library. They stitched out very smoothly. The tan one actually has deep red thread around the border, it just doesn't show up red! These were fun to make and I used the large spools of thread as they tak
It has been a long, long time since I posted anything I have made. This is a design from Oma's place. I believe it was just the inside and the outside frame, and was blank in the middle. Then I put in the verse. "I can do all things through Christ w
We NEED some snow! We only have about have about 10-12 inches on the ground. We should be at least two feet by now. The snowpack up here is critical for the front range of Colorado - where Denver is. There is a forecast for 10-12 inches this weekend..
Resolutions... Can you identify with this??
I was wondering if there is a way to make a request to Miss Veronica for a design to go with another one of her fabulous designs. I have used this FSL Kitty for so many things and I wish there was a Doggy to go with it. If you haven't stitched this yet
Needles! I have been having such a hard time getting any of my designs to turn out smoothly. It seems my machine catches on something when it turns a new direction. The only thing that changes from having good even stitches, to then the catching ones,
There was a really neat thing that happened after the fire. Lots of people were putting up banners that said, "Thank You Firefighters and First Responders." I made this banner for our front deck. After it was up for a couple of weeks and the snows ca
The view from our home. See the contour lines where the fire destroyed everything. There were friends' homes there. All gone - nothing except chimneys. Nothing to find in the ashes. The fire was so hot it melted some foundations. The winds were up t
