Souvenirs
In two days we had the opportunity to see several interesting stitched embroidery designs. We can distinguish 5 kinds:

The creation of such an embroidery takes between 30 minutes and 50 minutes. For example:
- 10 minutes for drawing and explanations
- 10 minutes for scanning, vectorizing and creating embroidery objects
- 0 to 10 minutes for adjusting the embroidery objects
- 12 to 20 minutes for the stitching with the Elna 8300, a small embroidery machine.
