I am working on a quilt called BOM Basket of Flowers by Marian Shenk. Some of the flowers have fabric fringe. I have never had success with making fringe out of fabric and I know there are embroidery designs with fringe, but I don't have an embroidery machine. I thought why not make my own. The embroidery machine and only zigzag so wide and my machine can do that! So I thought I would put up a tutorial and this is my first time so---be nice to me!! LOL I know you will!

First draw a circle where you what the fringe to be

Set your machine to the widest zigzag and close together--satin stitch. The needle should hit the circle on the inside.

Sorry for the blur. But it should look something like this.
