Finally was able to finish the quilting for my hummingbird quilt. For the first time, I used my embroidery machine to quilt the design in the while squares. I think it turned out nice, but I don't think I'll try to use my embroidery machine for anything larger than a lap quilt. It was very interesting getting it hooped right and then arranged around the machine so the design would stitch out. Enjoy!

It's lovely! I love hummingbirds. I like the use of the quilted design in the solid squares. This is so bright and cheerful.

My mom would absolutely love that one. She loves Hummingbirds. I love it too. It is beautiful LoriJ.

Love your bright cheerful quilt. Watch out if you take it outside. The real hummingbirds are going to want to claim this quilt as their own.

How beautiful!!! I just starting playing with my embroidery machine this week... haven't used it much before... and I am having a wonderful time!! Too bad it's too late to make Christmas presents. Maybe next year.

I use my embroidering unit to do all my quilting on my quilts, even king size. The results are great.

I love the hummers! You did an excellent job. Hummingbirds are my favorite. I think they should be our alternate state bird since they migrate. wish I coiuld see it really up close and personal. Keep up the good work.

sylvia77 12-26-2009 01:25 PM

Hummers are one of my favorites, along with the cardinal. Great job on the quilt.

Jim's Gem 12-29-2009 12:29 PM
