If you've always loved embroidering but you've seen it as too much work sometimes...Here is your answer. Machine Embroidery!
All you need is a sewing machine, compatible "darning foot" and a couple more things. It's super easy once you get the hang of it. And most importantly - it's nifty, gifty and impressive!
I've made my mom a cowboy pillow, myself - the makings of a Charmmy Kitty purse, and future projects will be Christmas gifts. This is the perfect solution for gifting a personalized item on a budget. You can see a tie that I did - HERE - and it was from the dollar store! Pretty awesome.
