Just an FYI in case you are interested: I just noticed that the SmartStitch 12 needle machine has a really good price on Amazon right now. Several hundred dollars off what I have typically seen it. amzn.to/46cersv

Patrice of Craftable Things and I will be starting our Christmas in July project next week on my Thursday night live - July 23rd at 6:30 p.m. Central Time. We will be making quilt blocks from Sweet Pea's Christmas Cookie Cutters Quilt project. Like our last project, we will host a Zoom party down the road where everyone who makes the project can come together to celebrate and sew. We will sew our blocks together and add backing during the Zoom. And the amount of blocks you choose to make and the final size of your project is totally up to you. Our project will be this one (I will be using very different colors than the example shows): swpea.com/products/christmas-cookie-cutter-quilt-4…
But Sweet Pea has a lot of adorable Christmas projects that you might want to make. Here is my affiliate link in case you are interested. swpea.com/makingwithmarilyn

If you are interested in a Smartstitch multi needle embroidery machine, Amazon Prime Deals are in full swing and the prices are really good right now. I use the Smartstitch 1201, which is a somewhat compact 12 needle machine. But here is information that I include in my videos so that you can see the general differences in the machines:

10 Needle Machine (has a little larger hoop than the 12 needle but less needles and weighs more) www.amazon.com/dp/B0D6G2Y4P8?maas=maas_adg_E23DB57…

12 Needle Machine (this is the one I use - it's fairly compact and weighs less than the other machines)
www.amazon.com/dp/B0C6SZ986Q?maas=maas_adg_28B0C62…

15 Needle Machine (has a very large hoop and more needles than what I used but weighs more and is pretty large) www.amazon.com/dp/B0CCS8F3XR?maas=maas_adg_57228EA…
