They're all so cute, can't wait to see this put together. Have you decided what you're going to do with them yet? A wall hanging for your sewing room would be nice. Go on treat yourself, you deserve it :P

Thank you ladies for your compliments. Amma my problems are with all of the patterns. I guess i'm trying to hard to get it right, is the only thing i can think of a the moment. I been at it everyday and still the different things go wrong when i emb. them . So i'll just take a deep breath and keep at it, till it comes out right. I can't give up i keep telling myself, its just a machine. Besides i love seeing the patterns when they come out on cloth, and i really enjoy my new hobby. (Trying to create) a quilt. I'm still not sure what i want to make of this, wall hanging sounds good so far. Happy sewing everyone.

Thank you for your offer to help me with my embroidery problems, tj, I have been quite busy last few days. I've signed up for a quilting lesson, so had to go back to shop to pick my material for the class, oh i'm so excited, can't wait to start. I'll be busy again for the next few days, I have to go to another town where i purchased my machine, to pick up my mega hoop. Sorry to have taken so long to reply to your post, so please give me a few days and i'll take pictures of the backing of my work to post on here. Thanks again for your help, happy quilting, Denise.
