Are we looking at the same page, Shira? The one I come up with just has maybe a dozen machine embroidery motifs- no nearly naked skirts at all. How curious.

Look here: http://www.oriental-embroidery.com/o...p?categoryID=2

And, in case they random load the images, a screen shot.

These designs are applique machine embroidery designs, in other words, you use fabric of your choice for that part (skirt, etc.). It's a step when you're doing the stitchout. The designs have lots of detail, and are unique & pretty when stitched out.

Cheers!
