Throughout my embroidery journey there has been many struggles, some I have shared others I have not, simply due to if I have found a solution or not.

Although anyone can read the instruction Manuel to gain this information some people like myself prefer to see it in action as well for a quick reference or simply for a visual. Also let’s be honest, not everyone reads the instruction booklets.
