After owning my embroidery machine for over nine months, I am finally beginning to explore everything I can do with it. Here are a couple of hanky angels I made for two friends on this board ... I used Superior Threads holographic glitter thread for the wings and parts of the garment so it has a nice sheen. The halo is in metallic gold. I used variegated thread for the blond one. Not sure I like it. The hankies were made with my serger. What do you think?

I don't think I'll be making any for sale. They took HOURS to stitch out!
