That is designing, and as most everyone said that is why the stitches were put into the machine - WE wanted to use them!!! LOL And it doesn't take as long as if doing it by hand (which I do love to do on small projects)

That looks adorable. There is no such word as cheating when you are designing with decorative stitches.

Nope, not cheating. I use them as often as I can in my doll quilts and hangings. I belive it can enhance the project.

I understand that there are no quilt police!:)
I just used decorative stitches on a table runner yesterday.Looks grrrreat!!! |
Looks good to me, might try it myself.
|
not cheating and it looks really good, if your machine does fancy stitches then there is nothing wrong with using them. My machine does it too and I have used them :thumbup:
|
How cool! I never thought of using them for quilting.
