Valentine card
Embroidered the design twice on the card on the right. The single design has 2163 stitches, so it stitches in minutes.
And there's no law that forbids to stitch it on things other than cards.

thanks

Yes, I did, had some red ones left over from Christmas. Hooped a cut-away stabiliser and attached the card with a bit of glue (used a stick) and dtarted the machine, holding the card down with my fingers for half a minute or so to make sure it did not shift.

shift. As you can see the stitch lentgh is rather large so it does not teat the paper. The double one was a bit of an experiment but that went well too.
