    I would love to, but the quilt won't fit under the arm of my brother embroidery machine.

    I do embroidery quilt blocks on my Janome 11000 all the time.. There are so many beautiful embroidery designs out there.. I use regular embroidery designs not just redwork.. I love to make quilt this way.. I can work on other projects while the embroidery machine is stitching away..

    If it is a simple design for quilting or redwork, you can quilt with it. If it is a regular embroidery design, it will be very stiff where the design is. I made a lap quilt in plain fall colors and did a simple straight quilting and then went back and quilted random falling leaves. They was stiff, but far apart and looked beautiful

    I think the original poster was asking about quilting in the hoop via an embroidery machine....not embroidery per se.
