The machine shows me where to put the fabric, tacks it down, and then I trim, and then the finishing stitch goes on for each layer.

I'm working on a quilt embroidery by Smith Design CD myself. They're fun aren't they? And they can use up lots of scraps:>

Very pretty. Love your arrangement of the blocks and the fabrics worked so well together with the embroidery. Enjoy quilting with your long arm.
