Introduction to machine embroidery 29th-2nd Nov

This week we had a group critique with the machine embroidery group before swapping over. It was interesting to see the amount of work machine had done compared to hand. I do feel that I  haven't been motivated enough in the past 3 weeks and haven't produced nearly enough work. \I have found the self directed study difficult and have not been disciplined enough, but I am looking forward to starting on the machines and can see by the other groups work there will be a lot more directed study to do and feel motivated to get stuck in.

We were shown by Nigel how to use the embroidery foot in the machine room, how to do satin stitch and cording. We were then asked to produce 12 black and white samples from the 15 squares we did in September.
