Since I decided (at GenCon last year) that I would begin sewing again, I’ve made a few random things:

• Dog collars (for a friend of mine who runs a dog rescue charity)
• Dog costumes (for my dogs for Halloween)
  

  
• Dog sweaters (for my dogs and others)
• Sewing class projects:
  • Pillowcase with French seams
  • Car organizer
  • Crate liners
  • Phone/tablet stands

I also upgraded my old Singer with a Babylock Verve.  My future projects will involve some embroidery.  I ran a test of the design for a bag I’ll be making in February (another class):

If anyone out there knows anything about embroidery machine design software, please let me know – I want to purchase a program but am uncertain as to which one would be the best for me.
