<div>Delighted at the response!</div>
<div>As soon as Her Excellency and all concerned approve, of course, and colors are agreed too, I would be happy to provide a hi res version of my drawing to be digitized. Can't wait to wear one!! </div>
<div>Too cool!!</div>

made them for her, Arielle, and Kari. If you send me a hi res coloring<br>
book type image of what you want, I'd be happy to digitize it, and it<br>
would be available for use by anybody that has an embroidery machine.<br>
I can make .PES (Brother) files, and can export them for other formats<br>
if needed (.SEW and .HUS), That would also give us an idea of stitch<br>
count. If you go to an embroidery shop, things like this usually cost<br>
anywhere from $1 to $3 per 1000 stitches. From the image posted<br>
previously, I'm guessing a 4x4 one would probably be at least a 4,000<br>
(depending on what is filled in, etc), and if the whole 4x4 circle is<br>
filled in, you are probably looking at 9,000 (ish). Digitizing done at<br>
a shop usually runs between $75 and $150 depending on complexity. I do<br>
not charge SCAdians for digitizing work, but do need the high res<br>
coloring book image to work from.<br>

You can find my work (among others) at the sadly neglected and out of<br>
date embroidery pages here:<br>
