I just added pictures of the fleece throw and sweatjacket I
embroidered for my DGS:

Fun projects! I had to remove the zipper, so when I put it
back in I changed thread colors at the logo. The throw is
edged with wooly nylon, but my Huskylock with differential
feed was not working so I had to use my old Bernette. I'm
not crazy about the wavy edges.

Now one of DGS's friend's mother has contracted for a throw
for her son (for Dartmouth!). ;-)

Those both look very professionally done. Good work!

Thanks! The design on DGS's throw fit within my large hoop:
9.375" X 5.375". I'm working on a design now for DGS's
friend, my first attempt at a multiple hoop design. It will
be 16 inches wide, and use five hoopings. Pics later, the
fleece is on its way.

I've done multiple hoopings (not more than three though) on my Brother 6x10
hoop. It's not as impossible as I thought it would be to get them lined up
pretty good!

The PSW software has some neat tricks for making the design
segments align, but the manual is awful and the "help" is
almost no help at all. I finally just dove in and figured
it out. I have a 16" wide text of "DARTMOUTH" which I'm
going to split into two parts, put "1796" and "Carpe Diem"
below that, and finally the young man's name below that.
All centered in the middle of the throw I used a built in
"Campus" font for the college name, but everything else is
individually digitized in a font (Bembo) which is similar to
what Dartmouth uses on their web site. That was a lot of
manual digitizing, but I am learning new techniques all the
time, and I love it. ;-)
