Re: Looking for redwork halloween designs
Advanced Embroidery
Please look at this set
Olga Advanced Embroidery Designs season - I don't want to spend a ton of money and have already checked outI am looking for redwork Halloween designs - I know I am a little out of emblibrary and also annthegran... and am considering stuff from both sites. Anyone out here know of other redwork halloween designs that aren't mega expensive? (I don't consider the emblibrary's ones mega expensive but I have seen sites that charge like $40 for a set of designs and that is not in my purchasing power right now for one project!) I will start sewing out tomorrow so I would love a little direction on some other possibilities! Thanks Deb |

Re: Angel of Light
Just finished the angel. I wanted to do metallic on both sides but couldn't wind the bobbin with the metallic without it kinking. Is there a trick to doing this and do I have to change the tension on the bobbin case?
Anyway it is metallic on one side and lt gray on the other will mail it tomorrow. Thank You for doing this thoughtful act. Eddy crusty72088@... ____________________________________________________________________________________ Don't pick lemons. See all the new 2007 cars at Yahoo! Autos. |

Letters are NOT trashed without return addresses!
katakaniki
sent through the US Post Office with NO Return Address isHello all, I just want to bring to your attention that any mail trashed....They will NOT return it, nor will they send it on.....so, make sure you put your return address on the evelope or it will not be delivered. The above is not true. My husband has been a mailman for many years and LETTERS are delivered all the time without return addresses. It is PACKAGES that are not delivered without a return address. They won't even pick them up or accept them without a return address due to bomb risks. Kat |

Re: Question on FSL
Thrishinaz
Hi Colleen, I digitize and embroider lots of fsl. I hoop 2 layers of H2O gone (this is what I use). I do not use any spray adhesive just hoop the two together. If you just use one layer it does not hold the stitching as well as two.

My daughter, Chelsea, attended the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising in Los Angeles, CA for the past two years. Over the course of those two years she has drawn many fashion designs and of course she always shared them with me. She recently applied for the third year advanced design program and so I am digitizing some of her past work to help pay for her college tuition! I sincerely hope you admire her work as much as this proud mom! I am offering the new set at a special introductory price until February 17th. There is a link tothe new designs on my home page for your convenience. Happy Sewing! Sherry Titzer sherrytitzer@... Yahoo group: |

Postage for Priority Mail weighing less than 1 pound is the same price, no matter where you are mailing it. For Priority Mail over 1 pound, the postage rate is determined by how far the mailpiece must travel to get to its destination: the farther it travels the more you pay in postage. The actual distance is measured by "zones." Zones range from zone 1 (local, close to you) to zone 8 (very far away from you).

Re: Angel of Brandi
Sonia:
I mailed my beautiful angel to Brandi today, along with a FSL heart with Love on it (both done is red). I would like to have your permission to share your angel design with my Digitizer Class. I feel like once the story of Brandi is told, they too will wish to send angels. Karen B. in Texas |
Re: Question on FSL
kathleen sundstrom
Colleen, I find that if I'm just using the small or medium hoops, one layer
is fine. However, when I do fsl in the large hoop - I need two layers to keep the tension right in the fabric and to keep from getting that little "creep" in the Vilene that makes the design off by 1/16th of so of an inch. Other than that, be sure to use the same thread in the bobbin as you do on top and I slow my machine down to 75% speed - seems to end up with a better result. I'm sure others have more information to offer. KathyS |
Re: Warning - Found virus in a freebie embroidery file tonight

Hi,
I just did a search on my computer for the 2 files you indicated had a virus in them. I do not have the twobirdsonbranch.zip, but located the words_4_mothers_day_PES.zip in my Designsinstitches folder. You said you did not know where you got these designs, so I thought I would let you know and you can go to the designer and let her know. I have not checked them for viruses.
