 ​Prize - £15 to spend on designs at Meryl Makes

Our August showcase winner has won £15 worth of designs just for showcasing a project using a Meryl Makes Design.

Let me introduce you to Linda Eiden.............
Linda lives in Louisville, Kentucky, and along with her husband enjoys trips to the Vermont mountains every year. She has always enjoyed sewing and embroidery since she was a youngster. Over the years, as grandchildren came along, Linda found most of her inspiration sewing and embroidering projects for her family, which brings such joy to her life.
​
A Pfaff was Linda's first embroidery machine and though it was difficult to use, it didn't put her off. She progressed to a Husqvarna Viking Designer 1 with a large 240x150 hoop and from that point on there was no stopping her. Next, a Pfaff Creative Vision increased the hoop size to a whopping 360x200 which really helped with all the in the hoop projects that Linda so enjoys creating. So the natural progression was to move to a multi needle and Linda now uses a Brother Enterprise PR 1000e 10 needle machine which she says is "the best ever".

When Linda saw the Sewing Alphabet she immediately knew it would be ideal for the sewing/quilting retreat she was going to attend. Her friends were so excited to see each letter as the various blocks were finished and I think you will agree that the finished results are stunning. What a great way to use this alphabet.
Congratulations Linda
