IMO.....If it is a lightweight, it will soften some. The heavyweight...NO.

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

Beautiful embroidery.

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.

Those are beautiful. I didn't think embordory would interest me whiten I bought my machine. :-( now I wish I had purchased the one with the embordory capability.

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

mermaid, my sewing and embroidery machine are sitting in an L-shape so I can sew a quilt while I am embroiderying.

fabric is beige denim. heavy embroidery needs stronger fabric. have a Janome MC11000SE which you only need the hoops. easiest machine to embroidery with
