I recently bought a new machine and I ordered some optional hoops for it. There are some items that were included that I have no idea what they are to be used for. Can anyone tell me what these little strips are for? There were no instructions included.

Today I finished a set of vintage flour sack dishtowels that will be a shower gift for my grandson and his bride-to-be. I hope that they find a use for them. I was going to make a set for myself and then I realized that I never dry dishes. I just leave th

I have wanted to try these for so long but the price always stopped me. Well, last week Stitch Deelight had this set on sale. The camera doesn't do it justice, the colors are much prettier than they appear here. Not sure why there is so much variation, m

I could no longer resist the desire to make a clothesline bowl so here is my first attempt. I used a design from Embroidery Library for the bottom. I turned the bowl on the side for the picture so the inside would show.
