Allene Snow
Snow Lady Designs
Allene
Snow has worked as a seamstress for over 35 years including
costume design for Galveston Mardi Gras and Texas
Renaissance Festival. Her love of embroidery started
with the purchase of her first embroidery machine in 1995
along with the scanning device for digitizing and she became
addicted to machine embroidery and digitizing. When
PEDesign became available the love of digitizing took off
like a rocket and has grown with each update.
Snowlady Designs opened in 2000 and quickly became known
for free standing lace designs with the look of hand
crochet. Allene loves sharing her passion for this
wonderful hobby so has been teaching at various
embroidery conferences and local shops since leaving the
corporate world in 2002 using visual lecture demos and
hands on classroom interaction.
With
all the children grown and moved out of the house, Allene
and her husband recently decided to live the life of modern
day gypsies moving all their stuff to storage and taking
to life on the road in a travel trailer. Moving
around the country has given her the opportunity to meet so
many more of you and Allene looks forward to continuing to meet
all of you as they travel around… |
Priscilla Madsen
Madsen
Originals
Priscilla started in Machine
Embroidery in 1996. She has been sewing for 25 years prior to
that and wanted to do more than stitch little lines of duckies on her
children's clothing. Priscilla, like most of us, can remember so
clearly staring at the machine running ALL BY ITSELF, making these
fabulous designs!
Priscilla has been teaching classes since 2000 in embroidery.
While she said she would never get into digitizing, she started
working with her software on something special and it grew into more
than just a hobby. In 2005, Madsen Originals was born.
Priscilla and her husband live in
Caldwell, ID and are owned by their cat. and they have 5
children and 3 grandchildren.

GUEST DIGITIZER
Carol Hoak
Art in Stitches
Carol Hoak has been
digitizing since 1994. Her first software was the very basic Pfaff
program, but it taught her a lot about accomplishing special designs
with only a few manual tools. In 2000, Carol won a commercial software
program at a trade show, and a new world opened up. Now she enjoys
creating designs both for customers and her favorite - the fun designs for
her web pages.

GUEST DIGITIZER Jane Marzewski
Designed
By Jane
Jane
Marzewski began fashion doll clothes with a hand needle as
a youngster. Her
mother helped her learn to sew. Later, after learning
about the new embroidery machines, Jane was inspired to
use twin needles for embroidery.
She likes the
way the lighter-weight embroidery threads combine with
heirloom fabrics to recreate the appearance of hand shadow
work.
Jane
is a certified Martha Pullen instructor.
Articles
featuring her work have appeared in the magazines Creative
Machine Embroidery, Sew Beautiful, and Quiltmaker.
Some of her work is also showcased in the book, Machine Embroidery Wild & Wacky: Stitch on Any and Every
Surface by Linda Turner
Griepentrog and Rebecca Kemp Brent. |
