You do beautiful work. I am new at quilting. You applique by machine, you said. Do you use the stretch stitch?

Quilt really looks beautiful. Would like to see it closer up though and more light on it. Thanks

Actually, Hoop Sisters quilts are assembled in the embroidery hoop, on an embroidery machine. The block is assembled with an applique process (over batting which has stabilizer in it) and then all the embroidery and quilting is done in various stages. So, when you get done with the block, the backing is on, the quilting is done. After you get all the blocks done, you assemble them with the sashing strips. The process intrigues me because I have always wanted a way to quilt individual blocks to avoid struggling with the large quilt top under the head of my machine. Hope this explained it well. They have a website which may be more specific.
