digitalartquilt has some beautiful patterns for quilting your quilt on her site and the prices are good too.

I used one of hers and there was no jump stitches to cut.. I'm still working on the quilt and will post when it is done.

You embroider the 3 layers and if you use the same thread in the bobbin it really looks great on both sides.

I do not use any stabbilizer as the quilt acts like one.
I do hoop my quilts as long as the batting isn't real thick.

Also Redwork really looks good, I have used it on a number of baby quilts and they come out so cute.

So you can use your embroidery machine for the piecing and then the quilting, I have a husqvarna #1+

Love my embroidery machine
:D
