Falling for Machine Embroidery: CME Fall 2021 Has Arrived!
Each year, the Creative Machine Embroidery team has to duke it out to decide our favorite season for machine embroidery. The top contenders are always fall and winter, Halloween or Christmas. Thank goodness, we don’t actually have to pick a favorite!
After summer adventures, fall is always a nice reprieve, a time to slow down, ponder the passing of time and get back to making. And don’t forget all the fall celebrations! We hope this issue of CME inspires you to do just that and more, no matter what you’re in the mood to make this fall. Don’t forget to check out the free designs for this issue, available through October 2021.

Happy Stitching,

Excited to find this list of old books. I am a keen embroiderer although I do work slowly I enjoy the stitching immensely. Thank you
