    Grann of 6, I was wondering...where did you get that design that you are using to do the embroidery? I really like that!

    Sorry got it, just went back and reread the thread...... but, is that design on a CD or can it be downloaded?
    It's on the CD in the back of the book; comes with the book.

    I have the whole set of Jeanine Twiggs books; she has some good ideas in them. I haven't used all of the designs but do use many of them over and over. The books aren't cheap but I feel I have gotten my moneys worth.
