Janet, I do both and I understand what you mean. My embroidery is more beautiful than my pieceing, ut I keep on going. One trick I found was to cut my block to 13 or 13 1/2 inces and then embroider and then cut to size. It has worked really niced. Keep going with the pieceing. Don't give up, Please, Quilters need you.

Only Embroidery blocks from me. If I don't have the design you want it's cheaper for me to buy it than waist all of this fabric trying to get these blocks right. So Thank you for letting me vent. I'm so mad at myself right now.

here is a picture of the disappearing nine patch quilt I just made in less than three days. Did the top in 8 hours on Sunday and finshed the rest. A wedding quilt I volunteered to make. Thank you for the suggestion of fast pattern and the tute link. Was perfect.

Hope I can do this right. It was suggested on the chat line and glad she shared.

I just loved the change of a simple nine patch into something you would never expect.
