Having recently bought a new-to-me embroidery machine, I'm feeling all inspired to do some really pretty baby stuff. Fortunately I have a friend whose expecting a little girl at the end of the month, so I have an excuse :)
I had a fun hour or two trying out the embroidery function on my machine, then trying out a few techniques I'd seen mentioned online. The numbers written on the samples are stitch numbers for my machine, a Bernina 165 in case anyone else has one. Click on the pictures for more info on the samples.
The design I stitched as a sample came out much too large for a babies dress, so I turned it into a thread bag - since stitching I've realised it tells you on the screen what size the design will be, but I can't say I'm too upset to have created something pretty through not paying attention!
