My New Projects!!!

Well girls - as some of you know - I bit the bullet approx 2.5 months ago and bought a home machine embroidery set-up!
Cost me £695 and I then had to buy the software too which was £220 and I have to say, for a good while I wasn't sure if I'd done the right thing until within the last month or so.

I was enjoying what I was doing BUT wasn't seeing "proof of the pudding" regarding making my money back.

I've been really relying on friends/family/facebookers etc to make suggestions on new things to try that they MAY purchase as a bit of market research really....

I've been regularly popping things on ebay and I have to say that although the sales haven't been brilliant from there, I've had orders from ebayers but not by a sale on ebay! They have approached me via the "Contact Seller" and asked me to do certain things (mainly towels and bridal hankies)....
I was blown away by my recent order.... 100 Embroidered Hand Towels!!!!


So, I'm currently ploughing away at doing those and I'm doing them MUCH faster than I actually thought (wouldn't of though if I didn't buy the additional hoop for the machine, meaning that I can have a towel ready to pop on once one has finished being embroidered!).

Some of you guys have bought stuff from me too - which I want to thank you for. It did give me the boost that I needed.

One of the best sellers is the Baby Fleece Blankets:-


And the babygrows with matching Bibs:-



Thanks to Adel, I now do Hankerchiefs... in particular Bridal ones too:-

- There's a swarovski crystal on this hankie too right above the 'i' in JOSIE.
and here is the matching towel to go with the above:-


I have now sourced pet fleece plankets so going to give that a try (who knows).....

Also, I want to try my hand a kiddies gym bags... matching pencil cases.... makeup bags. Not too sure how they're going to work out though.

Really, I wanted to just let you know one of the MANY reasons (as you know quite a few of the others) as to why I have been quite 'distant' and allucid on here recently.

You're doing a fab job Mrs and they seem to be going down really well!

My bro and his GF LOVED the fleece blanket for Lucy.

Brill - I need to do one and I hate wasting stuff.
These are the pet blankets I got although they only sent the black ones!!!

Sooooo, the writing colour would have to be a light colour.

What would you like on it?

There's no pic, but the cats are called Cleo and Molly, just their names would be lovely.

Many thanks!!
