Hi Glenn,
I have several of your designs, but one of my favorites is the Hummingbirds & Daisies split. I have used this on gifts for my Mom and my Aunt - and I am about to finally use it on a piece for myself! It is so versatile with changes in the colors from slight shading to total changes in the birds and trumpet flowers to go with the base materials. I am attaching a couple photos of how I have used your design.
Thank you so very much for your beautiful talent that you share with us.

I am totally in awe at the work displayed. Embroidery has opened up so many creative doors since we started home embroidery. It is hard to stitch fast enought to complete everything that is inpired by such tremendous talent.

Here is my tiger window completed. It was a dream to sew and watch sewing out. I have “framed” it in a dark brown suede and even if I say so myself – it looks wonderful LOL.

Hi Glenn,
Below are two pictures of the quilt. I had fun making it and your designs are great. I
bought both sets and would purchase others if you ever decided to digitize more. It was a challenge finding enough designs for a quilt. I wanted designs that actually looked like real cars and not cuitsey or poorly drawn graphics. Most sites with antique cars just weren't suitable.

Al Swink made twin quilts with the designs of
the Australian Buildings. The quilts are reversible.
I hope the pictures show up enough for you
to see how nice they stiched out.

Hi Glenn, Attached are photos of a table cloth I made for my Mother. I use
the sketch designs a lot but I finally found a way to use last year's
letters. The sketches sit around the edge of the table and all the letters
are around the 'skirt'. I just love these letters and am trying to think of
another use for them. Now also to think of a way to use this year's letters
and also the new sketch designs drawn by Pat Margetts which I am collecting.

The tigers look so powerful. Great design. Thank you very much.

Subject: Wall Hanging with Your Designs
Message: Hi Glenn, I created a wall hanging using your designs from
the Floral Bouquet sets and the Floral Fan Fair sets. I\'ve received a lot of
compliments on it and I always let everyone know where I bought the
designs. Also, I entered it in the Houston International Quilt show and it
was accepted as a Finalist! It will be there during festival next week.

Hi Glenn. Please find enclosed two photos of your Aussie Alphabet designs made into a wall hanger. Included your other free design of Sprit of the Outback, thought it fitted in well, as it has yours and Rays name on it. Thanks again to yourself and Ray for the great designs, had fun with the different ways you put out all the designs.
Best Wishes and Thanks Jenny and Martin Staal Perth Australia
Hello Glenn :)
The attached 2 photos are of black cotton pillows I made for my mom -- your designs are on them. I did enlarge them, and used thread by Thread Art and Isacord. They came out beautifully :) Your designs are Too Cool!

Hi Glenn,
Attached is a photo of the Butterfly Love I sewed out tonight. I'm going to frame it for my daughter's 25th Birthday on July 18th. Butterflies are her favorite so this was a special free gift to me that I'm sure will be just as special to her. It sewed out like a dream. The digitizing was superb. Thanks for your time and effort into making this a most excellent design.

I sent it off to Washington State this morning. I told him that he was getting a gift from Australia from a friend of mine, and if he guessed for a 100 years he would never guess what it was. Glenn I want to thank you so
much for these letters. I know he will love it.

This is a quilt i made for my father for his 80th Birthday. I have made
other quilts for all my family but never found something for my dad till i
saw your designs. My dad is an old bushie i thought this was just him . He
loves it and shows it to everyone that walks in his front door.
Many thanks for the hours of joy your designs give to so many people.

Hi Glenn, thanks for letting me know how to send for
show and tell, as I said I am really impressed with the
quality and realism of the KOOKABURRA and BUGGER
keep up this good work it is really appreciated.
Please find attached: This is a combination of several of the Spirit Series
Designs, It took a lot of organizing but I am really pleased with the result.
Once again thank you, Cheers Michael
This is the first time I've tried combining designs like this - they sewed out so beautifully I framed it. This has given me the confidence to try different things - thank you Glenn.

Hi Glenn, Attached are some photos of peg bags I made with your Spirit of
Aust designs. I loved the way they sewed out and look. My only problem now
is finding more ways to use them. Gervase ..............Victoria Australia
Below are several photos of projects I have finished using your beautiful border designs. They stitched out
very smoothly, and look even better in person. Thank you for digitizing such lovely designs.
Kindest regards,

Hi Glenn
I purchased your Furry Friends Designs a few months ago to make a quilt for
my Grandson 'Harley' who was born on 23 September 2005.
Attached is a photo of the quilt I made.

Above is a picture of the back of the jacket I did with your Eagle, I just wanted to be sure you knew I really am using your great designs! Everyone who has seen the jacket loves it. The picture doesn’t do it justice
Karen Springfield, Illinois, USA
Thank you for your free design (Spirit of the Outback). I have used it and a couple of others on some towels I am donating towards a dog show we are holding at Durack in Queensland to help raise some moneys for the victims of Cyclone Larry who have show dogs and have been left in a pretty desperate situation. The towels will be used as one of the main prizes for the show.
Once again thank you. The "Spirit of the Outback" was a very appropriate design.

Hi Glenn - thought I would share with you a photo of my first quilt. My 2 1/2 year old Grandson Jakob calls it his "Gunky" - nobody can touch it - he also uses it as a play mat.
I've started my next project it's an Oriental quilt using your Geisha Girl and Oriental designs. My daughter has already booked her quilt - an African design next - using your wild animals.
Love your designs
Regards Lesley J - Australia
I recently purchased the dragon designs; I used the black outline one as
a pocket on a purse (not assembled yet) and the golden one on a blouse.
I just thought I would send a picture; I love your work. I wish everyone
could digitize as efficiently as you. Sewing them out was a dream; it
was like watching the artist draw a picture. Thank you so much for all
the effort you put into in your work.

I am sewing out some of your work- the Tall Ships- in black, on a mottled blue fabric- I am going to use them as "windows" in a Cathedral Window Wall Hanging. Using unbleached muslin as the base fabric.
The reason I am writing is to tell you how wonderful your digitizing is. I get every freebie you give, with so much gratitude. I would give anything to be able to watch someone like you at work creating these marvelous designs- I can't begin to understand how you put so much detail into them as you do!
Jo
Above is a Cathedral Window Wall Hanging I finished last night for my son. He wants to be a shipbuilder! The designs are perfect! Size is 20.5" square. It is beautiful. Jo
Many thanks to Ann from Australia, for sending pictures of her Placemats

Hi Glenn, thought you would like to see a couple of shirts I used your space designs on. I have a 6 year old grandson who loves monsters and space. What a combination! They stitch out like a dream and even stitching over the seam that goes across the front of the shirt, there was no problem.

I embroidered this towel using your design for my brother, who does an
Elvis impersonation, he got a big kick out of it. The words were done in
gold metallic thread and shows up better on the towel then in the photo

I scanned the sweat shirt I made with one of your designs on it and it's attached. The story on the shirt: my former manager is retiring at the end of July with 40 years of U.S. Federal government service. His family had a sheep ranch, sew as his employees, we were all his "sheep" and he was our "sheepherder"! Sew of course, your sheep design was just the perfect thing for a retirement gift and as you can see, it stitched out wonderfully!!!
