These are done on the embroidery machine in layers. Soo, I put the block on sticky stabilizer and then layer on the pieces as each on is stitched out according to the pattern/directions. Well the pattern said to use fusible web. But I don't have any and I want to keep out as much bulk as I can. Soooo, I am using a kids glue stick as I go along and it's working out great!

AND when the quilt is all done, the tiny bit I am using will wash right out! :)

knlsmith,
are you able to chose the stiches or you must use that the pattern indicates?

It came on a CD and then I transferred the designs to my memory card for my machine. There are a variety of stitches for the circle backgrounds. Some are hearts, plain satin, and a few others.

I have 6 done. Here they are. I am doing 5 of each flower.
