Actually my embroidery machine did, isn't she clever? LOL. I purchased an embroidery machine at the beginning of the year and been trying to get used to it, I love it, it is so much fun to incorporate embroidery with quilting. The flower wreath (9'' block) is design by Joanne Winn, and I made three of them and set them on point to make a table runner then used my embroidery machine to quilt some feathers (free design from Designs in stitches) in the setting triangles, I am very pleased with how it turned out. It will go on my dresser when I am using my scrappy reds, greens and browns quilt.

Your work is beautiful. What type of machine do you have? I got a Quattro 6000 last year and my luck, the store closed 6 months after buying it. :( So, once again I am on my own to try to learn my machine. Did you have lessons on your machine to learn how to do this? Or are you just smart and talented.

Sandee 05-04-2012 07:40 AM

OK. IT"S BEAUTIFUL!! And I'm jealous!! What kind of embroidery machine do you have?

I love it! Beautiful job!

karenpatrick 05-05-2012 05:44 AM

Thanks for sharing. I've been looking for an embroidery patter for just such a use.

fmhall2 05-05-2012 06:28 AM

Very pretty. I love what you did with the embroidery.

bunbytes 05-05-2012 06:51 AM

Those squares are sooo pretty. I am ashamed to say that I've had an embroidery machine for a few years (Christmas present) and have never tried to embroider on it. It's a heck of a sewing machine. Just like those of you who break out into a cold sweat thinking about fmq, that's how I feel about attempting the embroidery. You have inspired me to just do it!

GramaLaura 05-05-2012 07:01 AM

So gorgeous!!! :)

BizzieLizzie 05-05-2012 07:10 AM

That is beautiful.....love the embroidery design.....great job quilting, too

llong0233 05-05-2012 08:28 AM

Thanks for the idea. I would never have thought to use the embroidery function on my machine to quilt. How cool is that? And it looks wonderful.

Sewfine 05-05-2012 08:59 AM

Beautiful. I love to incorporate embroidery with my quilts also. Thanks for sharing.

Latrinka 05-05-2012 12:58 PM

It's very pretty!

debcavan 05-05-2012 01:31 PM

You make good use of your machine. That is wonderful. It is a darling table runner.

sandybuttons 05-05-2012 05:30 PM

beautiful :)

ube quilting 05-05-2012 05:36 PM

It really takes a lot of practice and I mean alot. I could never see myself having enough time to throughly learn to use an E machine. I think you are well on your way to being a master!
peace
