Has anyone done the Rose of Remembrance quilt using the OESD embroidery designs? What type of stabilizer should you use for this project? I'm assuming you would stabilize for the applique, then proceed with the quilt as you go process. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Todd :shock:

Do you have a link for the OESD? I had it, but lost it.

I did see that Anita Goodesign had a rose of sharon come out in August.

I am not sure which technique they use, but if it is embroidery applique, most of them have a tack down stitch then you trim and then it stitches a pretty stitch over the edges.

I'm planning on using 2 layers of a tear away. I've done a couple of samples and have to say I'm a bit underwhelmed that the buttonhole stitches aren't closer together on the designs. I'm glad I have batiks for this project, because if you used a regular cotton it may fray eventually, especially if washed:<

It's on my list of to-dos!!

My janome dealer has the Anita G. Stuff. If I don't go too crazy in Des Moines this week I'm gonna give him a call.

Personally, I don't care for the newest Anita G. Rose of Sharon designs. I much prefer the look of the OESD.

Ok. i had found the oesd on the internet, but cant find it again, do you have a link for it?

I've never found a site for OESD, but their patterns are available through EmbroideryOnline.com
