I've been designing craft and sewing projects since 1993. About eight years ago I started getting emails from digitizers offering to turn my sewing patterns into embroidery files. I had no idea what "in the hoop" even meant or even the fact that embroidery machines could do so much. After several emails I decided to see what this digitizing was all about, and I became fascinated. How exciting to have another creative outlet! So, I took some online classes, purchased embroidery machines, and digitizing software. I figured that I had hundreds of sewing patterns (mug rugs & applique templates) it's time to start turning them into embroidery designs. I still design sewing patterns and enjoy turning my embroidery designs to sewing patterns and my sewing patterns into embroidery designs!
