shop Aprons
« on: February 03, 2013, 08:59:08 pm »
It is difficult to find something?s in my little place in this world. I have to go online to purchase a quality apron. I purchased a few cheap cotton shop aprons and customized them. I embroidered one for my one brother who is getting started into scrolling. I embroidered (Ron?s Woodcraft Shoppe) on an apron I purchased for him and wished him Happy birthday.

The one in the photo is mine. Yes I did the work. It took 10467 stitches. I purchased the pattern of the beaver.

Gary, I do the digitizing for my wife who is also into embroidery.  She has the PR-600 machine.  where did you find the beaver pattern?  I may do something similar.

My wife has an 820 Bernina. The file is from OESD $9.99 for the single file. I had thought about getting the Happy machine but my wife said it was too much money. I could have bought it for $10k. A year later she buys the 820 for $11k.  :o :o :o
It is not my place to make a comparison of what I want verses her wants! ::) ::)

Wise man!  You will never benefit from comparisons between purchases.  What is the pattern #.  I could already have it as I have a large number of embroidery files in storage.  Thanks.
