I had planned satin stitch, but I don't have a good supply of thread colours to match all the fabrics. So I'm thinking blanket stitch in black instead, which is why I'd need the fusible to keep the...

I've been playing a bit and think I might do slightly smaller blocks. That way I won't have to use my Megahoop and can fit them into the normal large one, which leaves me with a 5.5" design so...

It's -still- at 40 blocks left to make, which is why I'm planning to be a full-time member of BUTR! Must try to turn on sewing machine before this week is over... LOL.

I strongly doubt it. In the corner at the bottom is her sitting at her machine with the embroidery module attached and the background fabric hooped. I think she did it the same way I'm planning...

I thought the same thing, that the stitching could have been better. Although if I were doing it by hand I'm not sure mine would be much better, LOL. I looked at Lesley's link to the satin...
