Getting that Embroidery Mojo

After slaving over the muslin and finished garment of the princess seamed shirt, I was delighted to see a 40% off coupon code in my email for Embroidery Library. Here are my latest treasures:
In-the-hoop pin cushion

The wrist cushion I'm using now was tweaked from a purchased one whose plastic wristband was too tight. I simply attached the cushion to a 1-inch piece of elastic and closed the ends. Problem: the pins go straight through the cushion into my wrist! I look like I did back in the cat owning days! Sooooo, I'm going to make this one and attach it to a plastic disk. I'm thinking of using the lid to one of the small Glad/Rubbermaid containers.

In-the-hoop Small Scissors Case
Just couldn't resist!

In-the-hoop Coffee Sleeve
Yes, I'm on an in-the-hoop mission! Been wanting to make one of these but waited until I had the large hoop (6x12). Fun!

6x8.5 inch design

I'm thinking aprons, here. 

Just a few of my latest purchases. I'll add more later. 

Selected, ordered, downloaded...with a chihuahua on my lap!
