My first embroidery project
Well my wonderful husband bought me the Singer embroidery
machine that I wanted for my birthday. I finally have done something with it,
and it only took me 2 ½ months. A friend of mine wanted some hand towels for
her mother-in-law for Christmas so I agreed to do them. The first one I tried
failed miserably because of me of course. I was not lifting the presser foot
before I changed the thread…who knew that would be such a big deal? Well I of
course didn’t. So the thread would bunch up under the towel in the bobbin
area..I think it is called a bird’s nest, not too sure about that. Anyway after
much frustration, a ruined towel, and lots of reading I finally got it to work.
I think in the end they turned out great. She seemed to really like them and,
of course, that is all that matters.
