    And you thought I could shut up. Embroidery library has quilt labels to embroidery and personalize. Really nice stuff.

    Hi Karen,
    Your machine has the .JEF+ Embroidery Format if you do indeed own the 10000 machine. For more information try the janome.com web site. You will find tons of information.

    Happy Quilting....

    I have a Babylock Ellisimo, I can't seem to get the hang of downloading my designs from the computer (I like to use thumb drives) but I am working on it. M DH bought it for me last June, then we had some major illness in our family (SIL was diagnosed with Melanoma)so my mind has not been really focused. He is in treatment, so maybe i will be able to concentrate better. I am working on 2 fishing quilts for DGS's
    will post pics when I learn how. :oops: :oops: :oops:

    I have Janome 11000 (aka "Ms. Janome"). I have 2 boxes of theme quilt blocks sewn that I have to organize into quilts, somehow ... hopefully in 2010. Photos of other things I've done are below. It can be fun; it's a mood thing for me. I'll embroider pretty regularly for a while and then, while I'm working on something totally different, it's likely months before I do any more ME.

    I have a Viking Designer 1. I have several embroidery projects started, but got involved in learning to make other quilts, so the emb. projects are in my UFO stack. Would like to finish them this year, since I bought the machine for the emb. features.

    I started about 15 years ago with a Brother Esante, and it got a lot of use. Not too long ago it would mess up when I did free motion quilting, and the dealer repairman couldn't figure out what was wrong. MY DH insisted that I get a new machine as much as I loved sewing/quilting/embroidering. I bought the new Bernina 830 and can't believe how much more user friendly it is than the Brother was. I can combine and create new designs with the 830, but it was way over my head with the Brother (but then that was also 15 years ago technically). Don't have many pics on my computer now, but below are just a few of the things I've embroidered.

    I have a Brother 4000D with an upgrade with larger hoop and continuing embroidery capabilities like for sheets or tablecloths etc. It came with a USB port so I can download and add to a memory stick. I do have trouble with compressed files, for the life of me I cannot unzip files that are sent to me zipped.........just cannot........what am I doing wrond? I need to take classes for the upgrade. I am like others at this forum, I will embroider a while then quit and do something else.........love it all.
