Machine embroidery is wonderful and I love it but...I need more ideas. Do you have a favorite blog or go to on the internet for information, ideas, and most of all inspiration?

I have found most of the websites selling designs have tutorials and information which is wonderful but I am looking for inspiration as well.



Thank you.

Inspiration...for the project itself or the design to use on a project??? ITH projects are great fun, finished in the hoop zippers and all, great little gifts, baby things, pre-purchased blanks or items you sew yourself, placemats (dollar store or places like Anna's Linens sell inexp
ensive ones) with themed designs tailored to your decor or for gifts. Need more info so we can help more!

If it doesn't move, embroider it. Your husband will soon be hiding his underwear.

One of the things I have planned to make is a quilt using embroidered blocks. Also would like to do some home decor items. I am rural town type girl so not particularly savvy on what the newest ideas are using embroidery. It is one of those things I love doing and have invested way too much in designs and thread...now I need to use it all much more often. There are a few blogs I have found along with the sites selling designs and enjoy learning from them.

Thanks for your help...and I need lots!
