Christmas Card Time!

Yup, its that Time of Year again and one of
Jan and Lew's Favorite Things is
sending and receiving Christmas Cards.
For several years we have done something
in Machine Embroidery for our Cards.

Click on any PIC to Enlarge it.





Jan saw a Christmas Card with a Cat
on a Bookshelf and she found a
Machine Embroidery Pattern for
a Free Standing Lace Bookmark.
Yup, that'll do it.




Inside will be a PIC
of Adam and his Book.






Our new Machine at Work
stitching Bookmarks
to go with this year's
Book theme Cards.




They are being stitched on
"melt-away" stabilizer.
Soaking in Water dissolves
the white cloth-like stuff....





And what remains is
Free Standing Lace.
This year's Bookmark
on the Right.


Unfortunately we ran out of Blue Embroidery Thread,
Printer Ink and Time before we had done a
Card and Bookmark for everyone so some folks
are receiving the Card without Bookmark and PICs.
