Welcome aboard clzurz. You and your friend with like interest make for a wonderful art quilting buddy system. It's always more fun when we share the journey together. You gals have gotten off to a good start it sounds like to me, and I hope you post some photos of your work. My embellisher machine hasn't gotten much mileage on it since I bought it a couple years ago so my plan is to play more with it this year. So many possibilities! Have fun with it.

I have just purchased a new embellisher machine and also a serger which I will use to incorporate materials in my projects.
