If I made a flyer with some things I wanted to embroider on and sell, and included a picture, do I need to give credit for where the design came from? Or a notice at the bottom that all designs are used by permission? Thanks in advance.
Why is it that when I am about to use up a spool of thread that it seems to go on endlessly, but when I am about to use up a bobbin it ends about two inches before the end of the project??
I feel like such a grown-up! I cleaned my machine, took the top part apart and found a thread nest (and wondered when was the last time I used that color!), cleaned the bobbin, changed needle, and put it all back together. Here's the important part--no
I know I am very blessed to have two daughters who appreciate my sewing and embroidering gifts for them. But, whenever they need a gift, especially a shower gift, I am automatically expected to whip something up. I am happy to do it for them, but they
I have always used Brother bobbin thread for my Brother machine, and never really paid attention to it. Well, I realized that I have two spools, one 60wt and one 90wt I think I've only ever had 60wt before. Will I need to change any settings to use 9
Do any of you make wish lists of things you'd like to make with the designs you purchase? I feel wasteful. I have so many designs, and have good intentions of trying them, but then life happens and I get sidetracked and it seems like I never go back an
We lost our son in law this week to terminal liver failure. He and our oldest daughter had been married less than a year. He hid his illness from her with lies until the last two months when it grew to be too hard to hide. His illness was caused from
When you embroider on towels, do you use the same color bobbin thread as you do in the top? I usually try to do that, but today I totally forgot.
Several members of our church are heading to Greece next month on a mission trip. One of the type of items requested for them to take (as gifts) are items with Bible verses on them, like mugs, etc. They had been told that items like that are not availa
This past week has been awful, with both my adult daughters facing crises of one form or another. It sure is hard when your babies have grownup problems. Here is my beautiful red-headed almost-two granddaughter, which helps restore my joy. Maybe her s
A receptionist at a doctor's office went above and beyond for me this week, and I'd like to do something for her. I don't know her likes or dislikes, so I was thinking of a cheerful mug rug or something. Do any of you have any better ideas? Thanks i
Do any of you know how to use a lucet tool? My brother-in-law made me two tools, and some of the directions I find online are hard to understand.
My granddaughter, Riley Beth, had her first sleepover visit with her daddy last night. She had a great time. It was hard for me, though I can't put into words why. I guess this grandma is having a hard time growing up.
Does it feel like you've accomplished something when you empty a spool of thread? I feel as though I pass some sort of milestone when I do that, especially one of the big spools.
I was having issues with my sewing machine making pretty buttonholes, so I switched to an embroidery buttonhole. It worked perfectly! I had a little bit of an issue trying to figure out how to align them but I worked it out (my aging brain doesn't like
