I've noticed that a lot of you own an embroidery machine or a sewing/embroidery combo. How often do you use embroidery and for what? Do you embellish quilts? Decorate clothing, household goods, totes and bags? DH keeps telling me I need an embroidery machine, but I'm really not sure it would get that much use. Pics of all your handiwork are greatly appreciated! :-)

I have one and sadly I do not make real use of it. Last year I made Christmas stockings for my work department with their names on them. I too would love to hear others responses.

Have not used the embroidery funtion on my machine for 2 years. It is nice if you have small children to sew for.

Lets see how many I can find - but here is three :wink: I use mine on and off. I am glad that I have it though :thumbup:

I make blocks for quilts, made shower curtain for christmas (all 4 in blocks of chritmas things), Embroidery on tablerunners, I am going to make A memory game for little ones, just got the pattern yesterday from embroidery library, you can do lace things like snowfakes ect. embroidery on dish towels.pillow case edgings, emrodiery on purses and the list goes on and on. I love mine hate to think of the day it might have to go in the shop its Husqvarna SE great machine.

I love mine. I have the older model Janome mc 10001. I make place mats, table runners.covers for my mixer,toaster, ect. I need to learn to posts pictures.I have so many thing in my head to embroider I'll never get them done.Go to embroidery library they have a show case that people send in what they make with their designs

Embroidery library? A website or on the forum?

I live mine, don't use it quite enough but my last item is this.

Here is a quilt I made with my embroidery machine. Machine applique. The picture was taken at my sister's before I did the binding.
