Good idea as a mail-gift. I am sure he will appreciate it.

I love it in green! Although I digitised it using green (makes it a lot easier to see what you are doing) I only stitched in white. A pity, as I think yours is so nice.I hope you don't mind me adding the links.

Thank you so much for adding the link. I added them and they never showed up and then one comment shows up twice. Computers drive me nuts, but I couldn't live without one.

What type of metallic thread did you use? I've tried metalic thread without success.I used a needle for metallics & slowed the machine down ,but it didn't help.

I always use the same metallic in the bobbin - this particular metallic was RA - run the machine on slow and watch the thread for kinks coming off the spool. Have found that if I run a bobbin and use it as the top thread it doesn't kink and break as often.

Thanks for the info .I have a different brand but I'll try this out & see if it works for me otherwise I might have to buy some RA

Try placing metallic threads in the freezer until you are ready to use them. Use and place back in the freezer ubtil needed again.

A couple of these are on my to do list for Christmas. Nice that they can be enlarged a bit. They're quite lovely.

You can enlarge them a bit, but do what the craftycritter did: use a 30wt thread instead if the usual 40wt.
