Good morning friends. It has been about a minute since I've posted on my blog. I am dusting it of to share tutorials and handy links to my shop Parker on the Porch. So for today I am going to go over my supply list with links. Most of these are affiliate links. Affiliate links help me earn money when you use them to purchase supplies. The money from these purchases help keep my business going.
I recommend software for everyone. It will help you place names, customize your items and see the stitch outs before you sew.
I suggest Embrilliance Essentials. It's a great program that will grow with you!
I shop vinyl almost exclusively from
My Punkbroidery. Amy is great, please check out her website!
I use
Kamsnaps for all my snaptabs, cord keepers and ITH projects. You can buy directly from KamSnap. I highly recommend using a table press for your snaps. Especially if you will be selling the items you make. Size 20 snaps are the standard.
Amazon also has a good selection of starter kits with a hand press. You can find some
HERE.
I get my zippers from
Zipit on etsy. She is great and FAST to ship! Use code: PARKERONTHEPORCH and save 10% everytime!
I tend to pre-order most of my folder over elastic for planner bands, hair ties etc. I order from Nicole at
Little Stinkers on Facebook.
I have 2 machines I use. The
Janome 400E and the
Brother PE770. Both fantastic Machines. The 770 is great for beginners and the 400E is a good next step!
I buy a lot of my general supplies straight from Amazon. Here are several that I get the most questions about.
If you have any questions for feel the list needs some additions let me know! I will gladly update my post. Join us on Facebook for videos and chitter chatter.
