I can not believe it, "Born to Sew" Rob Appell's first embroidery collection on a multi-format cd rom is being pressed today! This is a crazy cool new collection of some less than normal embroidery designs. The collection will launch at Pfaff Convention in Texas the 5th of August, they will be available for purchase shortly there after. Yippee!

New Embroidery Collection!

Wow, I am sitting in my deluxe studio (the back of my garage) with embroidery machines running in stereo. A Pfaff 2170 to the left and the Creative Vision to my right, she is testing my extra large, punk rock style embroidery designs. The 2170 for the medium and small Tribal pieces. The collection must be finished before tonight and I am so close I can almost taste it! "Born to Sew" Embroidery Collection should launch at Pfaff Convention the first week of August. I will also be doing a custom and limited edition clothing line that will be for sale at The Cotton Ball, select boutiques and on my website, www.robappell.com

Big Things in our future with PFAFF. Did I say Q-Bot the automated computer for your Grand Quilter and Frame - super cool! I have other secrets but I can not tell you until after Pfaff Convention. Even if you bribe me with chocolate chip cookies.
