Re: Spruce Up Your Shirt Hem

Now, this was fairly easy! I tried the triangel(just figured it out by looking at picture) and the bias part- it's so cute and perky !

Re: Book Giveaway: "Embroidery Companion: Classic Designs for Modern Living" by Alicia Paulson

oh, for the love of embroidery! My first attempt at 10 was a colar and cuff set for the County fair. My painstaking efforts turned out neatly printed data for my 4-H uniform.My efforts were successful as I received a blue ribbon! I continued embroidering purses, clothing articles well beyond the 4-H years and even showed my granddaughter's the art ! Eleven years ago I got my first embroidery machine but still, there's nothing as satisfying as the art and love of hand embroidering!

Re: Spring Sewing Projects - What Do You Plan to Sew?

I guess I'm mostly a fresh-starter. Since I live in a RV traveling for 7-9 months and "Less is More", I carry a basic sewing machine( embroidery machine @ home) and small storage tub w/ notions,supplies and some fabric in cargo area to sew on the road. Yes,I have projects waiting for me when we return home and the excitement is mounting now! I learned to sew in 4-H and entered my garments in county fairs and they had to be near perfect outside and inside. I still sew near perfect and put my project away when I tire and return to it later. I also get items/projects ready for " Sniplet Sewing" that's for 15-30 minutes intervals!Well, I'm fortunate to have a sewing room so I just close the door when need be !!
