Embroidery Blocks
#54
what a coincidence! I started with these and the jacobean wings and things package yesterday. There are 9 designs in each one. What I hope to do, is make 12 inch blocks, with sashing around each, and make 1 design block, then have a blank block, alternating...you might do this and add the names in the blank blocks...you could slant the names, or align them with the blocks, and just do a solid quilt design, or free motion, in the blank blocks..
I cut 2 blocks, yesterday, one side was 12 inches, the other sides slanted to 11 inches....so I put things away, until today, maybe I will do better....lol...
I love the designs from emb library, I have bought most of mine from Debra.

I really like that idea of the person's flower for their birthmonth or the other one where you have the flower blocks and solid blocks with either one name or maybe each family with their names together on a block.

Awesome ideas ladies. I have the Innovis 4500D and I MUST get the Jacobbean designs... I love them. I'm already thinking of making Mom a quilt for Christmas like this. Please post more pics when you are finished your quilt.
I'm sure it will be beautiful!!

I wouldn't want to take away from the embroidery designs and I think if you do to intricate of a block you may do just that I was thinking something like a snowball block or a block that has not a lot of pieces in it. This is just my opinion though . I don't do a lot of pieced blocks in my quilts because of all the embroidery I try to incorporate.
