I have had my embroidery machine forseveral years and it sure is nice to be able to make personalized quick gifts. I made my elderly neighbor a bible coverwith an embroideried bible verse and I make her an embroidered old fashion rocker cushion and backpad for her front porch.

I am wondering where to get the time! I have yet to spend much time with my embrodiery machine like I would like. Tonite I did embrodiery on two receiving blankets that I made for a charity!

Wow, looks like you emb. a design on a quilt. Do you just do the top or the whole sandwich.

I have found cards for my Pfaff on E-Bay. Perhaps you will find some there.

AN OCCASSIONAL BUTTERFLY FREQUENTLY ENDS UP SOME PLACE ON A FINISHED QUILT. THE FAVORITE TRICK IS A SEAM THAT DOESN'T QUITE MATCH, LOOKS WONDERFUL WITH SOMETHING COVERING IT!

I make blocks and embroidery them and put them together with borders and then I add the batting and backing and quilt. there are 33 blocks in my avatar quilt. It is king size, and it was made for my daughter. She loves black.

I have a program that changes the format of any embroidery pattern to the one I need. PES for brother and hus for my viking. I can also change the size and colors, if I choose. My program is called Embird.
