:Go to http://www.helenhart.com/index.html to purchase her
:books. Helen started the embroideryline and is a very
:talented embroiderer. Anyone who is not a member of
:www.embroideryline.net should at least check into it. It is a
:list similar to ours only it is not specific to a certain
:brand of machine. It is a great source of information for
:sourcing garments as well as anything that has to do with
:embroidery. It is a higher traffic list than this one so you
:can expect anywhere from 50 to 150 a day sometimes. I have
:all my messages sent to a seperate folder in my inbox so I can
:read them when I have the time.
