Dopey moment. Was having a browse through the Urban Threads sale and I put a design I liked the look of in my basket. The lovely website told me I'd already bought it along with my order number. Aren't they great?

I wish they all did that! I can never remember what I bought.


You obviously like that design and think you will use it if you were going to buy it a second time.


I do hand embroidery and it is quite common to buy a design book twice if you really love the designs therein - therefore you are a normal embroiderer.
At least in my humble opinion.
With a book, when that happens, it is often given to a friend who doesn't have one of those

Embroidery library has done that for me also.

me too. Thank heavens for those sites who keep track for me, because I am kind of an impulsive shopper and unorganized to boot!

Then I guess when I bought the same piece of jewelry, for the same daughter, was called a 'Dopey Moment'!
I have had the same experience, even with free designs. Good they alert you.

Did the same thing and loved the warning. And I love that you can download every design you ever ordered again, even in a different format.

Not a dopey moment. Just a hard time remembering what we have.They have saved me a few times from the same thing. I love them for doing this and their great designs.

It's a good thing, I've done that before too with some websites. I'm glad they are on the ball! Love Chris

That has saved me money as well. Emblibrary does the same. I would have a few duplicates if it wasn't for their warning.

Yes it's one of the lovely things about them but they don't let you know if you have the design in a different size...

Good point!

and you can download a once bought design in a different format - nice when you get a machine of a different brand, better than converting.
