Well I've had a very enjoyable few hours with Elvis and learning so much more by doing ... and making mistakes.
He now displays the number of stitches to be stitched/ have been stitched in a design as a matter of course and I've found out how to know where I've moved the design to in the hoop, so now note that down just in case I get a bobbin running out of thread again!
To be honest ... I'm loving this at the moment and today stitched out 2 quite stitch heavy designs ...
Yes, the top thread is still very present on the bottom, but the stitch on the top looks lovely (I think)
so what should I do ...???
I'll show you one of the design is stitched today.....
but If I showed you the other, I'd have to kill you ....
