There is a very dedicated nurse/administrator who has done a LOT (more than I could ever imagine in fact) to help me deal with the BC surgery and treatment side effects. I made a table runner for her, which I just finished yesterday.

Beautiful. Wish I could outline satin stitch like you do. So bright and cheery. I'm sure she will treasure it.
Steven Alaska
Really simply lovely.
That is lovely, Irene. I'm sure your precious nurse will treasure it. And yes, Steven, Irene certainly is our champion at lovely satin stitch. Polly
So beautiful! And what a wonderful gesture on your part. I'm sure she will treasure it for years.
What a lovely and thoughtful gift. I know she'll appreciate it. I agree with the others, the satin stitch work on those flowers makes me jealous as can be. I can't get near that and wish I could.
Sunny
That will knock her out. Well done. I love the color choices.
John
How kind and how simply beautiful.

I cannot take credit for the beautiful applique and satin sitches...yes it was done with the embroidery machine! Specifically my Viking Designer 1.
-Irene
Thanks, Steven. Fortunately I have a machine that makes those wonderful applique and satin sitches; otherwise with my problem hands it would never happen!
-Irene
Thanks, Sunny. I wish I could say I hand-appliqued it - but all the credit goes to my Designer 1. I do love what she can do!
-Irene
I could have the machine and still not get that beautiful work. Just figuring out all that is probably beyond me. It just looks perfect. Wonderful! Taria
It looks beautiful Irene.

Bologna, Irene. I have a fine emb machine and have several friends closeby who do too. None of us can hold a candle to your lovely creation. You are far too modest. That table runner is exquisite. Polly
I agree. Being able to use a machine is a real talent. That is by far the best applique work I have seen. Taria
Howdy!
Priiiiiiteee!
Very pretty.
