I'm looking for designs about the old Andy Griffith show. Our pastor has always been a big fan, and makes references to the show in sermons sometimes. Our church is celebrating our pastor's 25th anniversary, and I'd like to do something special. Whe

If any of you are like me, you like to keep a supply of soft fleece blankets for quick gifts. I needed to re-stock so I started looking around and found some great deals on sears.com Everything I bought was less than half price. I don't usually shop

I am in search of a design of a show steer to do for a cattle company, and I'm having trouble thinking. Where can I look? It needs to be a full side view of a steer. Thanks in advance.

I'm going to be in Dallas in a couple of weeks, for work. I'm hoping to find a good fabric store to play in during the evenings when I'm out of class. Do any of you Texas cuties know if there is a good store close to Irving, Texas? I'll have to tak

a while back, I had posted the idea that I was going to use a panel of a lace bowl for a "modesty panel" for a shirt. Well, here's the model! The colors somehow don't show up as well as in real life, but the panel is the perfect size. A huge thank

I just read mariahail's post about poetry, and wanted to share. A man I work with had a brain bleed a few years ago, and we thought he was going to die. He pulled through, and ever since, he has poetry just pouring out of him. He's published 2 books,

I love seeing everyone's pictures when they add them to messages. I especially love the cute mice ones--but I absolutely despise the real thing (which I have in my house now because the pasture next to use was mown for hay and the rotten things are tryi

I need advice about stabilizer--I have always used the stabilizer at my Brother sewing center, or ordered from EmbroiderThis. Price is a big consideration. Now that I've tried ITH projects, I need some more tear-away, and don't know the best brand.

My first time to use an embossed font (design from DBC) Wow, it has a lot of stitches. Almost 18,000. I did two bath towels, and two hand towels for a colleague's wedding.

I have about 5 yards of handmade tatted lace, that I've had for 30 years. It was made for me by an elderly (in her 90's at the time) blind lady, her name was Fannie McCorckle (isn't that a great name?) Of course she's passed away long ago, and now I

I truly don't mean to post this often, really. I'm embarrassed to ask this, because I've been embroidering for several years now, but what does it mean on my PE Design to split stitches? How is it helpful?

Help! I wanted to embroider this for my mom, but the design is so dense! My thread is breaking constantly. Is there anything I can do to decrease it? I'm using a size 11 needle, and size 40 thread. Any suggestions?
