    I am just learning how to use the embroidery unit on my machine. All I have done so far is quilt labels, but I want to learn how to do more. I have downloaded a boatload of free designs and spent just a little time with the software on the computer to try and figure it out. I need to have some more time to work on it. You have made some gorgeous items with your embroidery, I hope I can be half as good as you by next Christmas!!!

    I love the one in the lower left corner.

    The blue fabric in the lower left corner is from Robert Kaufman "Stargazers" Print #7561. I need to find more of it, I only got a fat quarter of each of the two blues. It has gold etching shimmering in it!!!

    That is so sweet -- Thank you!! I love to do the machine embroidery. And if I can figure it out, you'll have no problems!! Wish I could make quilts half as beautiful as the ones you see here... :roll:
