Sea Glass design

I was finally able to finish this design and upload it to my store.  I actually embroidered it twice as I entered the first one in the Sew Awareness 2026 quilt festival which contained copyrighted designs from another store.  So, to be able to upload a photo on my store, I needed to embroider another one.

I don't know if it is a labor of love or just craziness to gather up about 120 different pieces of fabric and about 60 spools of thread and change color with every piece of fabric.  Embroidering about 15 pieces per evening after a whole day of work, well, you decide.  The design was already done in February and embroidering two of them with life in-between, brought us to mid June.  And beware, rummaging through so much fabric left your studio looking somewhat like a war zone.

I gifted this one to a friend who is going to turn it into a bath mat.  I will put up a picture of my original one after the festival have concluded.

And finally all 60 designs is finished.  It has been a long trek getting all of them done and I can continue with all the other ideas filling my head.  Producing 60 designs in 8 sizes and in 10 different versions for Bernina, Husqvarna, Pfaff, Singer, Brother etc. machines resulted in a grand total of 5 611 files - something people just don't realize.

Last year Embroidery Library updated their website after babying their customers for years and they received terrible backlash from their customers.  Some people bought designs and never downloaded it and expected the store to keep their purchases until the day they decided to use it.  No, that's not how it work.  The bigger the store gets, the more expensive and cumbersome it gets.  It's like any other item you buy, you take it home with you and take responsibility for it's safekeeping.  

They were all bitching and moaning because they now have to download a zip file...  Well, it is so much faster to upload one zip file containing all the different versions instead of uploading one by one.  You just unzip and delete the files you don't need.  Just good housekeeping.  The difference by using these 60 designs as an example, I uploaded 600 files in total instead of 5 611.  I thing the numbers speak for themselves.

And for taking the store's side, I was told off by quite a few as being perfect and what not.  No, far from perfect, just always mindful about how files are stored since starting to work on PC's as a computer aided draftsperson since 2000.
