Hi KeelyJo --

I have a computerized sewing/embroidery machine with all the fun toys that go along with it. I have been embroidering for about 10 years now. The Maverick part would be a piece of cake to design, however if you were wanting to add the photograph, then it becomes problematic. There is software available that allows you to digitize and stitch out photos however because of all the shading the embroideries don't usually turn out well. What happens is that each layer of shadowing becomes a layer of embroidery and the design becomes very thick and heavy. You can remove layers, but when you do that you also remove the "photograph" effect. I do have several "Yorkie" embroidery patterns in my library and I havce access to several Yorkie puppy designs as well. Below is a silk bookmark with a fairly simple but detailed Yorkie pattern.
