    I just bought a Janome 350E and along with doing my quilts, I'd love to embroider towels, napkins, baby stuff etc.... I'm looking for a place to purchase "blanks", possibly in bulk that reduces my cost per item. Does anyone know of a website or store that sells this kind of stuff? Suggestions welcome!!

    What do you mean "blanks"? Blank memory cards?

    Blanks as in plain tshirts, bibs, burpclothes, napkins, etc that I can then put my own embroidery on. Does that make any sense? I don't know if I'm using the correct terminology or not.

    Ann the Gran has some blanks available, when I first started I went to WalMart, Joann's and Michaels, they have some as well. At least it will get your feet wet. :D :D

    Nancy's Notions carries some. There is another place that carries all of that stuff but I can't remember the name. Try googling embroidery supplies and see what you come up with. I get a newsletter from this one place that I can't remember the name of but I have never ordererd from them.

    The place I am thinking of is called Embroiderthis.com [[email protected]]

    They have all kinds of stuff to embroider on, towels, pillow cases, etc etc.
