Find inspiration in every stitch.

MEL's Tangle Club (MEL = Machine Embroidery Lover!) is a one-of-a-kind monthly club where we explore the magic of Zentangle-inspired patterns and translate them into stunning machine embroidery motifs.

In fact, it's the only embroidery and digitizing club inspired by Zentangle patterns, designed specifically for creative stitchers using BERNINA Embroidery Software v9 or Hatch Embroidery Digitizer 3.

MEL's Tangle Club is a place for Machine Embroidery Lovers everywhere to supercharge their creativity.

This is for you if you:

• Love machine embroidery and want to create your own digitized designs
• Use BERNINA v9 or Hatch 3 digitizing software
• Want ready-to-use, editable motifs in multiple formats
• Appreciate beautifully organized inspiration and step-by-step tutorials
• Enjoy connecting live with like-minded creative minds

Recommended for: Confident digitizers (or adventurous beginners who’ve taken the Digitizing and Design Masterclass)

Dr. Sarah Vedeler

Since I was a young girl, I've had a love for sewing.

That love transformed into a hobby, a passion, and then a career.

Nearly 2 decades ago, I started designing my own quilts and offering those designs (as well as classes on how to use them) to quilters all over the world.

I discovered my super-power and purpose:

To ignite the fire of creativity in the hearts and minds of people who are hungry to experience the transformative process of creating something beautiful themselves.

Watching people of all skill-levels and walks of life grow their skillset and their confidence using my designs has been incredible.

In beautiful nerdy fashion, I mash up my PhD in Theoretical Computer Science and career as a Software Engineer with a love of color and design. 

The result?

Machine embroidery applique and quilting in the hoop designs which allow YOU to create spectacular quilts and other projects.
