I love your site. I have a question I was given an old embroidery book of patterns its "Jonell's pattern booklet for loop embroidery needle" my question is what kind of transfer paper do you use. I tried several kinds at joann's and I doesn't come off good enough for me to see it. thanks for all the info you give on your site.

I love your ideas. My daughter and I was just talking and I said I think we need a light box. then we could just trace it. then you answered. we are going to check out a kids art light box and if that doesn't work we will try your idea. we are embroiderying on pillowcase dolls. so thank you for your help.

Oh, I so want to make something like that. Are you using DMZ or yarn?

Your embroidery work is so inspiring! I have decided to get my hoops and floss out and get started again on something I haven't worked with in several years!

That is a beautiful verse, Kathleen... and so fitting of the work you do!
