wow, this is slow... rip and start again.
will freestyle around where I will applique the sun, birds, flowers, leaves, stems... not wanting to put all that work if the free stlye does not work out.

slow... very slow. not loving it.

camera dark for free stlye, eveyone is asleep and can't turn on all the lights to flood the living room. will wake up the dog, grandkids, husband, daughter..

I think you are doing really well...I haven't tried this yet. Pretty new to machine work, I am just doing simple lines and trying not to fall off the ditches! Perhaps a cup of tea and a rest might be an idea (chocolate could be helpful!).

I might have to give this a try. It looks like you are doing a great job. Very pretty.

heh, I watched a series of utubes before I tried, talked about preparing your machine, moving your hands and shoulders, singing a song.. lots of great tips first.
