My Embroidery Mentor is a site dedicated to helping both embroidery hobbyists and professionals master the art of machine embroidery. For the hobbyist, there are tips and videos on a variety of topics, discussion groups, free designs, pages and pages of finished projects, and all sorts of information designed to inspire your creative instincts! For the professionals (or those who want to become embroidery professionals), there are sections devoted to the key issues in “turning pro” – how to market your embroidery, how much to charge, where to find customers – all written based on years of experience.

My Embroidery Mentor was created by Deborah Jones, a 35-year embroidery veteran, embroidery expert, author and marketing professional. Deborah writes the “Ask the Expert” column in Designs in Machine Embroidery, the leading embroidery magazine. She also writes feature articles for Impressions magazine and her work has appeared on the cover of several machine embroidery magazines. A popular speaker on embroidery topics, she has created instructional videos, written embroidery software manuals and owned a successful embroidery business. Through My Embroidery Mentor, Deborah makes her extensive expertise available to you, through tips, videos, books, and private lessons.

We’ve spent time with Deborah, and we’ve been very impressed with her extensive knowledge of all aspects of machine embroidery. Her book, “Machine Embroidery on Difficult Fabrics“,  is available through Embroider This, and we look forward to partnering with her to bring you the latest in tips and techniques. Check out My Embroidery Mentor, and you’ll be impressed too!
