Start with a company's designs that people recommend as always turning out. For me that would be Martha Pullen, Cute Embroidery (of course) or Floriani. I have had some failures from Designs by SICK, although some digitizers are excellent. Skip the metallic thread until you've experienced some success. Layer one layer of the white washaway (more stays in) and one layer of the "clear" (mostly washes out). DO NOT enlarge or decrease design, if you're a beginner! I want you to have success. New sharp needle and slow your machine speed down. Sit back and be prepared to be amazed! Oh, rinse in a bowl, not the sink, and toss the rinse water in your back yard, not down the drain to prevent a really nasty, expensive plumber's bill in about eighteen months. Just trust me on this one.

Thanks Donna, I've bought a few items over the years and they've always stitched out well. Love Chris

Thanks Linda,, the other 8 designs are just as nice too. Love Chris

Thanks Martine, I thought so too. Love Chris

Hi Suzanna, I bought a new metal hoop on Tuesday and it just wouldn't work with my Ruby - took it back today to Thorpe's and Maarten updated the software version, so it's now working like a charm. I've never used a metal hoop before and it uses magnets to hold onto the stabiliser and fabrics. I've done my first one out on it today and it's really fabulous. Love Chris

Thanks Pam, they are easy to find. Just look at FSL, on the left hand side of the page at Embroidery Home. Then it's the FSL Santa Claus set at the moment it's at the bottom of page 1. Love Chris
