Really beautiful! I can't wait to see it all finished. I don't really quite have a grasp on machine embroidery yet as I just learning it now. So if this is a stupid question...sorry! But does the cutaway stabilizer soften in the wash so you can't tell it's there in the quilt?
I used Yahoo and searched for embroidery stabilizer guide
Who'd have thought there was such great info on so many sites? These are just a few I took time to look at. I need to read all these sites and make a handy dandy reference guide for myself. Now, when do I start that new project??? lol

Reminds me of my hand stitching days except these patterns have very close stitching with very fine thread that could not be achieved by hand stitching. So truly beautiful. This work could become addictive and applied to decorating centers or edges of many quilt projects. Am thinking of The Gypsy Wife quilt with a variety of squares enriched with stitches and various colors. You have developed a lovely skill.

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