I just finished an embroidery and machine embroidery applique quilt for my gd...it is ready to go on the longarm...I also just finished a Christmas Redwork all machine embroidery..I use my Bernina 830 all the time...I do matching pillowcases done with embroidery and I also do alot of names for the kids....its fun and gives me inspiration when I am not in the mood to piece...I have 2 machines set up in my room..sometimes I have them both going at once and sometimes just one at a time....lots of fun..blessings
