Sewing door embroidered sign


This is the new sign I made today so people can tell where my new sewing studio is.  I embroidered on white vinyl and put grommets on top so I can hang with some ribbon from my door.  I just love the fall theme.  I'm going to try and do one for each season.  I wish I had put a different stabilizer on the back or maybe changed the needle, but now I know for next time.  I used my Brother Entrepreneur Pro 1000 this machine has embroidered through everything I put under it. Hope you like it.

Sewing Crafting studio display window



Today I finally had a chance to get into my new Sewing and Crafting Studio.  I washed windows, cleaned the bathroom, cleaned the cabinets, lots of fun things.  I did all this because I wanted to start moving some of my craft supplies in, but most important I wanted to put up my new sign I made myself up and some items on display.  I think it came out pretty cute myself.  I think I'm still going to hang items from the top of the windows, but I'm going to wait until the floors are done.  Can't wait for my classes to start.
