Final Dress!

Hi Kathy and all of our Friends,

Well, here is Claire in her finished Easter dress! This is at the mall waiting to see the Easter Bunny. Thankfully we went to see the Easter Bunny because she never wore the dress on Easter! My family was sick over the weekend, so I think she'll wear it this coming Sunday - why not right?

I'm currently working on writing lessons about machine stitches. I love to use machine stitches, like I did on Claire's dress, to create unique embroidery designs. I find using the machine stitches, combined with other elements creates very unique designs.

I was also playing around yesterday in Design Creator. I was filling clip art, like this butterfly that comes with the software with Specialty Fills - like a Shape Fill - using a Motif. A motif in the software is like the stitches on the machine. They are just used in a different way!

Anyway, I hope everyone is enjoying spring time. We are expecting snow tomorrow, but no accumulation, so I guess it's ok.

Back to more creating!
