I like your comment about threading a needle while the machine is running - funny. Beautiful work.

I love coffee also, usually can't drink any after about noon.
Your wall hanging is very cute, you did great work on it.

Please share your setup for embroidery, e.g., machine, thread brand, stabilizer, etc. The stitches look soooo perfect! It is a beautiful piece!

I use a Brother PR-600 machine and Isacord thread. The stabilizer is Smooth Touch Tear-Away from OESD. I make sure the stabilizer is cut larger than the hoop --- no floating stabilizer! Wen the design is finished, it's easy to tear away the excess, and I save the larger pieces for my 4x4 hoop. Press your finished embroidery from the back, and do not use steam. That's it --- nothing fancy! If you do have puckers around your embroidery, don't worry. They WILL quilt out!

Sounds like I should UP my consumption! I only drink two pots a day! Besides, I need to live until at least 95 to finish all of the projects I'm thinking about doing!

Absolutely love coffee also and your work of art! I have the designs and waiting on the fabric to arrive from Fabric.com to make my wall-hanging. Kudos!
