I would never have thought to use denim for such beautiful designs. Where did you get your designs? It will be a beautiful quilt.

Those are gorgeous!!!! I love Jacobean.
so many quilts to make, so little time.
fabric is beige denim. heavy embroidery needs stronger fabric. have a Janome MC11000SE which you only need the hoops. easiest machine to embroidery with
embroidery library has sections on how to embroider on many items
Love this, but sometimes I don't have the patience needed to keep changing thread colors...this would certainly be worth it. Thanks for sharing.

I am interested in learning about THE GYPSY WIFE QUILT. Is there a link to its design? Just interested in the name having never seen or heard of it before.
Hi Suz, pollio1940 here . I just did a search on Google and it pulled up lots of images. You could search from there.
The pics are inspiring.
We have tried for YEARS to get them to put up a place for those of
us who also do machine embroidery.
The one time I asked PatriceJ I was simply told NO. Without an
explanation or anything else.
Heard that MANY others were told the same thing.
But there IS a post that if not posted to all the time ends up MANY
pages back.
Here is a link to the MACHINE EMBROIDERY thread that we
currently use there are 2721 posts to read.
Louise - Ya-ya to Zachary April 13 2015. I collect mugs from the U.S. and around the world. Also collect handmade pincushions, sewing/quilting themed fabrics, and fabric in general.
pollio1940. Thanks for the suggestion. I looked also and found several interesting quilts. Looks like the blocks are all leftover blocks of different sizes which were worked into one end of the quilt. Unfortunately, I do not have a lot of extra blocks and to make them just for this quilt is not in my liking. Interesting quilt though. Thanks again.
