My first embroidery!

amethyst73I finally got around to playing with the embroidery function of my new sewing machine today! The machine communicates beautifully with my Macbook Pro - the green and blue lace design came off the computer. And it seems to embroider pretty well too. :) The Mettler embroidery thread worked fine - no breaks or tangles (not that that's saying much with a design this simple, but there ya go).
(The brownish lump, however, did not work so well. It's the start of a cat, but the system got confused when I was shifting the design around in the embroidery field, and thought that the center was shifted rightwards. So it ended up banging into to right edge, at which point I put a halt to it. Oh well - something to ask about in the intro embroidery class in a few weeks!)

I couldn't wait to get it out to take the first photo.
