Here's one I made using the outline stitch embroidery. I used that as the quilting so it shows on both sides of the quilt.

Thanks so much for posting your pics of your lovely mug rugs and Sunbonnet's lace flowers. My gosh, they're just beautiful! :thumbup: Those lace flowers just MAKE the Sue! Will folks really use such beautiful mug rugs? LOL

Appreciate the inspiration, :-)

What an adorable quilt and a wonderful way to use the embroidery designs, too!! :thumbup: Did you have any trouble embroidering your quilt, any 'drag' or other problems? Any hints, or was it pretty straight forward?

Thanks so much,

Beautiful quilts!!! I love to use my embroidery machine for quilting. Actually quilting is a pain because of the frquent hoopings and getting the hoopings acurate, but it can be done.

I usually embroider blocks and then machine quilt.

Wow! Thank you so much for sharing your lovely quilts! Everyone here is just SEW inspiring!! :thumbup:

How did you do the one with the Bible verses? Did the design come that way or did you design it yourself? I'd love to do something like that. :-)

Thanks,
