Store your bobbins on toe seperators, the kind you use when you polish your toe nails. The seperators are inexpensive and will hold the end threads in place.
The majority of designs I stitch are designed by Embroidery Library. You can visit their site and choose designs of your liking and I will be happy to custom embroidery for you on products of your choice.
Embroidery Library is my Favorite Embroidery Design Store on the web. The designs always stitch out perfectly and are very, very high quality. The people at Embroidery Library are very professional and digitize perfect designs.
My Sassy avatar is one of their designs, as well as many of the pictures on this blog. To see all of their designs visit their site at the link posted below.
