My love for sewing and
embroidery has started a long time ago when I hand-sewed and
embroidered first dresses for my Barbie doll. When I was about 12 I
started to sew for myself. I have always put some piece of
embellishment on my dresses, couldn't stand simple things but hand
embroidery was too time-consuming for me in those days. When I first
saw embroidery machine in one of the Burda magazines I was tempted.
It took several years until I was able to buy my dear Pfaff 7570 but
since then I got totally hooked. When I discovered embroidery on the
internet and got my first home computer, I lost last remains of my
free time. As anybody else, I downloaded freebies from the net and
started with my first attempts in digitizing. I offered my designs
for download first on Sherry DeRosia's site and then I set up my own
website on one of the freesite servers. I never thought I could also
sell my designs, I never felt good enough. But well-known digitizer
Elsa Goussard from South Africa encouraged me to do so. It took time
until I did but it happened and now I'm really happy I started. It
brought more stress into my life as I still keep my main job and do
embroidery just on evenings and weekends. As my head is constantly
overcrowded with ideas most of which I'm not able to realize due the
lack of time, it sometimes brings me hard moments. But it also
brings a lot of joy to my life and one day I will concentrate on
embroidery only and hopefully calm down a little:) In the meantime,
I'm working hard to satisfy my dear customers and attract a new ones
with quality designs that are thoroughly digitized and tested to
bring joy and pleasure to their users. For the time being I had to
put embroidery on the second rail (as we say here) since I became a
happy mom of little wild girl. She takes all my time so my machines
are gathering dust but you know what - she once saw one of the
machines embroidering and I could hardly hold her at a safe
distance, she wanted to get closer. Looks like I will have a
successor:)
