I LOVE TEACHING

I love teaching the ladies the different techniques for embroidery.
I just finished teaching some ladies who are very new to their embroidery machines.  Spoke to them about the different types of stabilizers, different needles that one uses, how to hoop and how not to hoop something.  The different techniques, ie  applique, in the hoop, fsl, etc.
Also spoke to them about how to embroider on stretch fabrics, towelling and of course showed them all how to go about it.
The ladies loved it and went away a lot more confident and inspired to try and do this by themselves.
This is not the first class that I have taught and I do follow up classes for the ladies too.
Not too long ago I had a lady who, after my class, stitched out more on her machine in a weekend than she had done in the three months that she had her machine.
I just love hearing stories like this.  My aim in these classes is to get everyone so motivated and inspired that they go home and try the things that they have learnt in class.
The weekend is almost upon us - thank goodness.  I have been very busy doing my digitizing and have some pics to show off :-

SOME MORE GIRLY SAYINGS
 




Thankyou all for taking the time to have a look.  I hope you all have a wonderful weekend.  I am going to "high tea" on Saturday afternoon with some friends.  Cannot wait - all that lovely cake - hmmmm

Yours in embroidery - till next time
Karen
