BYOB

This month, it's BYOB – Build your own Blocks. I've done ten basic shapes that create many additional designs when combined or repeated. The designs have an open net fill and a stem stitch border. The blocks can stitch or skip the net-fill.

Hi I'm PJ

Since 2006 I’ve been a teacher at Montavilla Sewing Centers in the Portland Metro area. I design, produce and teach the monthly projects for Babylock Serger Club, Janome, BabyLock and Brother Machine Embroidery Club, and 8” Block of the month Club.

I have a lot of fun creating projects, designs, and patterns that incorporate techniques and products to encourage the students to get the most out of their Sergers or Embroidery Machines.
