New embroidery designs for sale

It's been a month since my last blog post and sadly, not much happened since then as my Brother Innovis 4000 broke down and parts isn't available locally anymore.  13 years and 30 million stitches later, the machine is now considered obsolete.  So, although I have my Bernina 830 of 1981 to use, I just couldn't find the inspiration.  I am so sad and so utterly disappointed in Brother...  I was able to find the parts in the USA, but after buying and paying for all, I was informed that they however don't have all the parts in stock.  My friend's fiancĂ© would have brought it with the end of November, but now, who knows? 

I was however able to digitize a new set of 1heart designs for smaller hoops, as I currently can't continue with the Bohemian set which require the extra-large hoop of the NV4000.  They are available here from my shop at Oregon Patchworks.
