Machine Embroidery: Pin-Tuck Machine

I really enjoyed today's double needle and pin-tuck foot tutorial. The images below show my first attempts at sampling with this technique. I particularly enjoyed experimenting with the different weights of fabrics and corresponding feet/ needles, as each gave a variety of results. The way that the samples ended today, has inspired me to continue with this technique, experimenting with more thicknesses and fabrics in order to see the results.
