A first attempt...

There are a few reasons why I bought myself a new embroidery machine. Now I'm able to personalise products with for example names, and buy the beautiful designs you can get online to decorate my products with.

It's understandable though that using these designs is limited because of 'copyright'.

So in the near future I hope to design them myself! 

Luckily my boyfriend is very much into computer stuff : )

And luckily he thinks this 'embroidery stuff' is 'pretty cool' (wow!) and he also thinks my drawing and painting is 'pretty cool' so he sees some opportunities and is more then willing to help (yay!)

This weekend we gave it a first try.

I don't have the right software yet, so we couldn't really create the detailed image I wanted, 

but for a first try.....

...'pretty cool' I think!
