    That is a great idea to put the names on it.

    Oh my gosh Roberto, you are just amazing and spoiling me so much, I LOVE IT... Looking forward to receiving them... It looks like you'all really had a nice New Years Eve, glad Cathy is feeling better. I came down with the crud on Christmas night! Sure has wiped me out - am very slow getting my deco's put away. Work a little, rest a lot, work a little, etc..lol I'm just ready to get back into the groove. Hoping for snow soon, but with temps in the 50's+ little difficult for any to get here!! Come on COLD weather..

    Thanks friend, have a great day.
    Hugs
    Jean

    Hi Robert....your embroidery is beautiful!! I really enjoy machine embroidery too. Was wondering what machine you have? I bought the Singer Futura CE250 about 5 yrs ago and I had so much fun with it. A year ago October I bought the Futura Quartet. The largest hoop my 250 has is a 5 x 7 and the Quartet came with a 6 x 10 inch hoop. I just couldn't resist buying the machine and get a larger hoop. I am really enjoying this machine as well. Anyway....just wanted to say you do a beautiful job on your Santas. HUGS Corry

    well fooey - I cut out a pile of blocks for setting squares for my daughters hearts & butterflies blocks -- and they just aren't playing nice together. But on a plus note... I now have a pile of blocks for a quilt for my niece on the way

    Those kites are AWESOME, Love the paisley. Really, you are doing Fabulous. Here's one hint for you, when you are using the same design in multiple applications on the same block, try resizing one of them making it larger and maybe rotate one from right to left to give it a differnt look and it makes it more interesting. Just a thought, give it a try sometime. Great Job Donna.
    PM me anytime if you had any help or questions.
    All the best

    Default Hey Corry

    I had a brother 2001 ULT machine for 10 years and I was getting the itch to be able to mega designs, i was getting weary of the multiple hoopings, and I was contemplating doing some contract work for soem of the costumers I had worked for. Mostly embroidery on bodices and sleeves for peroid costumes. SO, I took the leap and bought a Viking Diamond Designer. It's amazing, I still am learning all of what it can do. It has the majestic hoop that can embroider designs up to 13 inches.....Love it Love it Love it.
    All the best Corry
