Machine Embroidered Quilt
very good can;t wait to make my quilt
Machine embroidery not just for small blocks anymore
I absolutely love the techniques I learned at this session. I had formerly machine embroidered a queen size quilt after the blocks were sewn together. What a job!!!!It took forever and I had to adjust and readjust the hoop for every section. Now I can really enjoy the embroidery choices without the fuss and strip piece it completely. When the added strip pieces are sewn together the whole quilt is done!!!!!!
Thank you again for making quilting a fun activity again. Keep up the good ...
Informative
My Husband bought me a brother embroidery machine in June 2012, which i actual opened yesterday, its sounds stupid that a grown woman is to scared to switch it on lol but this is the case, after watching the vidoes on this class, i am going to turn it on and have a go, thought the classes were very informative, never knew you could quilt like this :)
What a great class.
This class was so good and so clearly done, that I am inspired to create and have already laid out a project that I have been putting off for weeks. Thanks Eileen. I hope you will be offering some more classes. And, oh yes, I ordered the Snap Hoop too. Can't wait.
