Has anyone ever used an embroidery design like this for quilting?
http://www.emblibrary.com/EL/Product...roductID=X6746 This has me intrigued. I like hand quilting but don't always have the time. I'm not skilled at FMQ. I wonder how this would work/look. Thanks |
All the time!

Good find - I will definitely have to give those a try :-)

This is what embroidery sewing machines do. I have a Janome and it can does this type of work beautifully. I have done whole quilts. A pain, I will add, because each design has to be hooped.
But yes, it is pretty easy to learn to do once you've got the machine on which to do it. |
I also have a Janome and do this all the time. I luv to quilt through all 3 layers. fast n done.
Was having a little trouble in aprevious post was asking about stitches skipping and not tight enough but after talking to dealer said to use same top n bottom thread and not turn my tention knob to 2 like I do for dense em. Gale |

I've done it before, just don't really like hooping and unhooping when working with a larger quilt. I love that method for quilt-as-you-go, though!
