Howdy from Texas

[BrenB]

I am new here and to embroidery. I have wanted to learn it for a long time and just bought a Brothers PE-770. I have to learn the machine plus everything about embroidery. This looks like a good place to learn. We own a computer store and I am a computer tech and enjoy it but looking for something else to add to our business. I have done webdesigning and graphics for many years and hope this will help me in doing my own designs (in the distant future...after I learn everything else)
I have 3 grand daughters ages 2 yrs.,5 mo. and 2 mo. I hope to make them some cute things.

Hello, BrenB. Welcome to SiCK. You have discovered the perfect place for learning all about embroidery. DBS is safe, friendly, fun, entertaining, and educational. After collecting numerous free designs, you will be making cute things for your granddaughters in no time. Hope to chat with you more and maybe we can see some pics of your successful projects posted, too.

If you are just starting, you couldnt have found a better place! I just bought my first embroidering machine last May and now its running constantly. I had all kinds of issues in the beginning and doublt I would have had the patience to keep on keeping on if it werent for the help and encouragement I found here. Kick your shoes off and relax and soon you'll feel right at home

Howdy from one more Texan. Glad you found this site and joined. Not only are there great people here eager to help. But also you can gain a wealth of information here. All you need to do is ask. Plus the fact that the designs here are great. The thread and stabilizer sold here are priced very reasonably. Looking forward to seeing pictures of your embroidered projects in the future.
Hugs, Patty
