I have wanted to make a quilt for sometime using black as the background. When I saw the Hop To It designs I knew this was the quilt to use black. I was able to use the Bernina software to make changes to the design. It was fun and a learning quilt.

I really like quilts with black backgrounds. They make the other colors used pop. This is lovely. Are all the flowers embroidered?

Beautiful quilt!

Thanks for your kind comments. On washing ...who ever gets it will have to worry about that. Ha! However I think it would wash nicely all the material was pre-washed. . Yes all the designs are machine embroidered.
Now off to my next project, not happy unless I have another one to start.

Your quilt is the EXACT reason why I want to get an embroidery machine!!! Lovely!! I've had some ideas and have to wait. :cry: One day though.

Beautiful quilt and very original to boot!
Black background is striking.
The quilt "feels" a little like something Mary Engelbreit would do!

Maybe you can supply them with a color catcher. Those work great. :thumbup:

I've always thought black makes the colors pop. This is a gorgeous quilt. Is it for you or for someone else? I'd have a hard time parting with it.

sewnsewer2 06-19-2010 09:42 AM

Beautiful! The colors really pop!

Girl, you outdid yourself. This is an awesome quilt. Don't know who is getting this, but I know they will be delighted to receive such a beautiful quilt.

I love your quilt. Wish I was that creative. Go make more. You did GOOD!

SewSew2 06-20-2010 04:39 AM

I have to agree with those that said you would have a hard time parting with it. This one is a keeper for me. Having three girls I will just let them draw straws when I am gone. Ha! From the first time I saw machine embroidery, I knew one day I had to have a machine that could embroidery. I love embroidery work and slowly learning more about it.
Thanks for all you encouraging words.

bstanbro 06-20-2010 10:16 AM
