Description: Julia’s Needle Designs features a wide array of machine embroidery designs to accommodate almost every taste.  Each design is manually digitized without using any automatic software or outsourcing.  The designs are digitized solely by Cindy Russell, and are tested on several machines.  She began digitizing in 2004 and absolutely loves it.  The venture began as a means to pay college expenses, but soon blossomed into a large commercial business.
