My credit card shows how many designs I have bought from Emb. Library. They are super and those sales get me every time! I too have sew many, bought a mini computer (netbook) to keep them all on, right by my machine. Don't have it all set up yet though. DH says I am slowing down the main computer with all my sewing stuff. :oops:

I have all my designs on a memory stick, it is amazing on how many you can get on one. I have more than half of the stick empty, plenty of room for more. :mrgreen:

I'm laughing because my DH recently got me a "bigger and better" computer and told me that it would have plenty of room for my pictures and embroidery stuff. We're needing an external hard drive now!

What are you using for stabilizer? The squares look so nice and flat?

I'm using the medium tear-away stabilizer. AND, I learned a very important lesson after the first two. Only press the area around the animals. I layed a heavier fabric over the first two and pressed directly on top and now I have ripples around the design. I think (hope) I can make them taut enough to flatten them out again.

Hmmm -- maybe that's why mine always wrinkle - I iron the dickens out of them all over.

Thanks -- I'll try not to press so much.... :D

But they do flatten out a bit after quilting -- or is it that I just add more wrinkles? :lol:
