Sew… funny story.. several years ago I made a quilt photo frame… Fast forward today.. I pulled out some fabric and my quilt pattern… finished it and brought it into the kitchen to make sure I had enough magnets in it to stick on the fridge… when I read I had used the same fabric! lol!!

Grace, your picture frames are adorable. You just really know what you like.
Very neat fabric frames, good idea to dress up the fridge.

Has anyone used an embroidery machine? I'm trying to battle my way through the software. I like to create my own stuff. Therein lies the problem. I guess most people buy commercial design. Me, I always have "other" ideas. Would love some advice.
Hi Sylvia, I bought an embroidery machine. I took a class for the software. Gave up. I bought commercial patterns. I had fun with it for a while but machine is now for sale.

Sylvia - Good luck learning the software.
I agree with Judith. I got an embroidery/sewing machine for Christmas in 2003 or 2004. I used it that Christmas and made a couple small designs with the included software. I bought a few software discs and downloaded a few designs and never used any of them. The machine sits, not used since then, and I am ready to sell it, too.

I am accidentally discovering some procedures and I’m writing them down. I think I need bigger patience pills or more wine! Maybe I should bake some scones

Today I made 13 valentines 3x3 cards for my daughter to give her kindergarten class.

Cissik aka Sylvia… if the Passes were not so dangerous,, I would run over to your house , with a bottle of wine and we could fiddle with your embroidery machine!
