well some friends of mine have 2 very expensive embroidery machines for doing shirts, i ordered a few landseer shirts with my kennel name on them, and they look great!
they offered to get me a cheaper machine, but hopefully has all the bells and whistles and they will train me on it!
i cant wait to see if they approve of the machine, normally they are upwards of 10,000$ and they got this one for 4,000
so i dont know how good it is.
but it will be fun to learn!
i need to cut down on the grooming, my tendons are going on me, and i noticed if i do less dogs a day they are much improved, embroidery i was told by them is "low impact" on the wrists and tendons! LOL
so....
i cant wait! ;)

:eek:
LOL i will let you know if the needle stabs my fingers to! yowza!
i only hope i will be good at it.LOL
i may hear from them within the week, the good thing is i think that the work is farmed out from town here to others for embroidery work.
this way, once i get going (if i get going) i can pay off the machine in my own time, these guys have been great friends for years, i got emmett from them

hubby already has jobs lined up for the citizens academy thru the PD and other things he is involved in.

plus i can hit up the kennel club! :D

A Berner friend of mine got one of these this past summer. She's having a blast! As for patterns, I've asked her if there's anyway a photograph could be digitized. I know there's software to make cross stitch patterns out of photos... it would be so neat if they could be made for embroidery!

I just bought a baseball cap with a newfy head embroidered on it today. The machine was all computerized and it took about twenty minutes to do. Turned out very nice and they only charged 10 dollars. I thought that was pretty cheap!Looks like a fun investment!
