Prize - £10 to spend on designs at Meryl Makes
Our December showcase winner, Gayle King, has won £10 worth of designs just for showcasing a project using a Meryl Makes Design.
Let me introduce you to Gayle King who says this about herself...............
“I am Gayle King and live with my husband, daughter, mum and stepson, along with our 3 dogs, 4 cats and copious amounts of fish in our 11 tanks and 4 ponds! I live in leafy Buckinghamshire not far from some woods that appear in lots of films! Burnham Beeches and very near to the famous Pinewood Studios home to 007 and where I married my wonderful husband.
I started using embroidery machines nearly 18 years ago, I stopped using them for a while but found a new love for them when I moved to a new house 3 years ago and gained a much longed for sewing room all of my own! Since then I have bought two amazing machines that have given me the love of embroidery back big time. My husband joins me in my hobby and has learnt to digitize and use the machines! I am currently trying to start up a small home embroidery business and will continue to pursue this in the coming months after I have recovered from a recent hand surgery that has stopped me embroidering at the moment.
I so love Meryl’s designs and quite probably have every one she has ever made. I love making her cards and no longer buy shop made cards, everyone gets a personalised card made on the machines from Meryl’s amazing collection. I was so excited when Meryl released the Christmas Cracker design last year! I had been thinking how I could make some and for the second time that year bam, Meryl seemed to have been reading my mind and created something I was looking for (the previous one being a dog and handbag card!) I had already bought the fabric to make my crackers and just needed a design and there it was ready for me to go. I didn’t put names on the crackers, I added Merry Christmas and used Meryl’s Christmas Cracker tags with the family’s names on instead and attached them to the cracker. I bought some snaps to make them go bang from Amazon, typed out lots of jokes, added some chocolate and a puzzle to each cracker and they went down so well.
Meryl thank you for your amazing designs, as you know I use my VIP membership quickly each month.”.
Congratulations to Gayle and we look forward to seeing more of your makes.
