I've been surfing, again, and found several websites with pictures showing completed clothing such as jackets, blouses, etc., with embroidery/applique designs on them. One in particular was a jacket with what appeared to be appliqued balloons going up the side. I found this on Livingsoft's website.
Being as I'm still a little timid to branch out on my own, I was hoping someone could tell me if there is a book that gives ideas of items to make and embroider. Is there such a thing?
There is a magazine called "Creative Machine Embroidery"
Thank you sooo much! I really love the site, and being as I don't like in the UK (Liz's post), it's very helpful. I'll also look at a few books. Thank you again!

Their very nice website is
