Grand Format Embroidery and Mylar
This has been the most fun project so far!
Sometimes I get a little carried away with adding bling. Someone needs to restrain me. Seriously. But when I have an embroidery area that is twelve feet long, it’s easy to let my imagination run wild!
Coffee Break
OK, I'll admit it.... I am a coffee-holic. I drink at least two pots of "leaded" coffee every day. I consider myself a professional (kids, don't try this at home!). Drinking this much coffee allows me to thread a sewing machine while the needle is going up and down -- truly my best skill!
Bloom where you are planted
With spring finally arriving, I had the urge to embroider some designs with flowers in them. One of my favorite expressions is "Bloom where you are planted", so when I saw this design from Embroidery Library I knew I had to stitch it. Other designs from their garden department shortly followed, and then they just "grew" into a quilt! Isn't it amazing how a small project can just grow into something larger, and then blossom into a rare gem?
