It's A Guy Thing!

Sometimes, there is absolutely no hope for dressing guys - forget about taking them out in public! Then there is this guy, he is actually robbing a bank. . . . And last, but not least, the ones that 'got away.' (Yuck! ) I cannot do anything about those guys, but I can help with a gift for the favorite Dad in your life! How many times have you

A Newbie's Guide to Cutwork

When you first start to work with embroidery, you are going to find so many great items that it will be hard to decide on which one to try first. Right after Free Standing Lace (fsl) my next project was cutwork. To my knowledge, neither of these techniques can be done with hand embroidery. So, naturally I was anxious to do the cutwork as well. For newbies

A Five Year Anniversary Gift

Can you believe it, I started my blog here on 5/9/2008. Things have changed a lot and it really is an exciting time in embroidery. I remember when I started that I wondered if I could come up with 3 ideas for blogs. Somehow, I have managed nearly every other week for that long. I recall being worried when I first tried free standing lace (blog) (fsl

Re: Who Does This?

YES!!! You have written what needs to be said. If all else fails, read the instructions Let me add one thing. After you have 'mastered' everything (LOL), go back and review the manual again. You are going to find things you did not understand, know, see or check out the first time around. You are going to find a feature that will make your embroidery

Mother's Day - Year Round

Now that I am a grandmother, I can look back and see what I did right, wrong and strange with my children. We have all had good and bad to deal with. I see my children parenting my grandchildren and am impressed that they do as well as they do. I am very impressed as to how they deal with everything given the things that happens these days! The one

Newbie Faints, Overwhelmed by Details

As a Newbie (we love YOU and we were all where you are), I can read your questions and remember when I asked the same things. It does not matter how much you sew; or how much you have spent on your equipment and supplies; it does not matter what you know about embroidery; machine embroidery is different from anything you have ever done. The good news

Google Ads

When you traverse the Net, you leave little bits of information every where. For instance, if you are visiting a site on growing plants, the next thing you will see is ads that target plants. How did they do that? Well, it is complex but you can adjust your information by going here: https://www.google.com/settings/ads/onweb/?sig=ACi0TChIJ803ZD3lZbZck0ysoPumoe7zuIcIDIwidrudYCAHaiywDJbPuISS4gFTtd

It's The Perfect Wedding Bow

I know that this is an embroidery blog but sometimes, you just gotta learn about the little things you will need when you give your beautiful gift. When you see the beautiful bows at a special event, I always figured a magical, nimble-fingered elf came when no one was looking and creating the bow that was not lopsided and picture perfect. AHA! I found
