I found them not so bad. It's bit more work as it's machine applique along with embroidery. You'll be removing your hoop a lot to put in the next fabric. I fell in love with it, and even though I was very much a novice with my machine at the time, I just went ahead with it. I did feel that the designs where well digitized and went together. I've done some that really seem like nothing fits like it should.
I did the crazy quilt ones. A friend of mine had shown them to me when I first got my machine. She knew I liked quilting and thought it would be a good project to help me learn my machine.
