New BFC Facebook Group

When Yahoo went away, it was hard to know what to replace it with. I knew a lot of people used Facebook, but i never cared for it. IO groups looked more similar to Yahoo, so I went with them. We never had much conversation going on in IO and I have really been disappointed with it.

Always on the lookout for ways to market, I noticed one of the groups I belonged to was going to have an Embroidery HOP. I remembered HOPS from way back but hadn’t seen any.. So I asked how to get involved. I had to have a Facebook group! I guess it was in the stars, so I finally gave in. I started a group and it’s actually been a lot of fun! We are just getting started, but I wanted to let you know if you want to join us:

Dee’s Sally King’s Leaf Fairy

Loved creating this! I have so many BFC designs to create but this was my first from many years ago .

Beautiful Dee. I love this design from Sally. I have her hanging in my bedroom. She comes in two versions – one with the elf ears and one with normal ears. 🙂

Bernice’s Windows on the World – Russia

From Bernice:

Now I need to use one more of my “many” talents. The saying “better done than perfect” I did the embroidery about 15 years ago on my 180e, I knew it needed to be framed. Framing was something that Glen and I always did together! When I was drawing and painting we found out that the framing was very expensive. We spent time “antiquing for frames”. He would remake them and we cut our own mats. The design is from BFC designs, Suz is a great digitizer.

You did a great job framing this Bernice!

Vera’s Fantastic Projects

Vera is my friend from Russia that does the most beautiful projects! She thinks of every detail. You can tell she puts a lot of thought into her work and pays attention to every detail.Thank you Vera so giving BFC such a wonderful showcase!

From her words: BFC has so many talented, beautiful designs! – I am very pleased to embroider them and I want people to see this embroidery. That’s why I embroider these designs not only as pictures – but, for example, on bags. Love the designs by BFC! – and so it turned out that I only embroider their or my own designs. I’ve got a lot of works using designs from Suz Makalinaw and Fred Smilde! – I’ll show you the autumn succoyage and the eyeglass with an eagle – these are very different works, but both things are incredibly beautifu

Here are just some of works:

I can’t wait for the new shoe!
