mellicious1. Do you have or use a embroidery sewing machine? My sewing machine does very basic embroidery. If you're talking about the specialized embroidery machines - no, and to tell you the truth, I don't get the appeal. I have no desire to have one.
2. Have you done hand embroidery? Yes.
3. Did you grandmother embroider? She did, off and on, although she wasn't what you would call a "crafty" person in general. I think it was my mother who taught me to embroider, not my grandmother.
4. Would you like to learn? I would like to learn more different stitches. Luckily there are some really good websites for that, or there used to be, anyway! (I haven't looked lately.)
5. Do you have any pictures with embroidery in them to share? Of course!
