I took these pictures at our recent quilt show and the person used 12 in blocks with a pretty fabric and her fancy stitches on her machine
I didn't get the complete quilt but you will get the idea

SO LOVELY

Very pretty

Beautiful! Thanks for sharing. I need to use my fancy stitches to keep them from freezing up according to the man who does maintainence on my machine. I think I will give her method a try. :)

wow, that's lovely. i tried something like that once... took quite a while to stitch all of the fancy stitches.

Amazing!! So beautiful.

Oh, that just takes my breath away. Simply gorgeous!

beautiful, thanks for sharing and giving us inspiration.

Very pretty. It makes me want to find a project to use my fancy stitches.

thanks for shareing--i like this a lot more than the cream on cream

Sublime ,dommage on ne le voit pas en entier ce quilt

Thank You for sharing the beautiful pics! I need to play with various stitches on my machine but just never take the time. Maybe you have just given me the nudge I needed.

Very pretty!

I've done that quilt twice...It's called Pictogram.
I entered it in the Joann's quilt contest last yr...didn't win...but got a 10.00 coupons for entering...

Gorgeous!!

That is beautiful!

I'm so glad you posted this. I was pretty sure I had seen those machine embroidery designs before, just couldn't remember where. Just shows how fabric selections can make a design your own. Same pattern, but two stunning quilts with different personalities!

Beautiful quilt!! Thanks for sharing. I love to use my embroidery stitches on my machine and this is a great way to bring them into my quilting.

Great job! I'm guilty for not using my fancy stitches on my machine.

Great idea for machine stiches. Very pretty quilts!

Beautiful

Those fancy stitches really embellish the quilt. My machine doesn't have all those stitches, and the ones it has, it doesn't make properly.

Simply beautiful. Every woman should have a quilt like this!

What a great idea and your pics were great. Thanks for sharing.

Wow! Lovely quilts!

Beautiful!!!

There's a book with all the designs and patterns by Judy Norwicki, Pictogram Block Party...It's just for this quilt.

This quilt is a machine embroidered creation. The motifs are not created with decorative machine stitches, although the designs are digitized to look like they are.

All the quilt photos here are AWESOME!

thanks for the info on the pictogram book, I sure plan to get it.

Sorry but the stitches are all decorative stitches build into my sewing machine (Husq Viking SE) not done on my embroidery machine. This was strictly done by sewing with decorative stitches. Combining one pedal to create a flower and leaves...Heart, tear drops etc...all in my sewing machne. The SE has pages and pages of built in stitches

Thanks for the info on which machine... beautiful job.Thanks

BEAUTIFUL!!!

OOPS so sorry!!!! My dealer had this package, I thought it came with a CD. I misunderstood the construction method. Thanks for the correction!

Lovely quilt and love those fancy stitches~~~

Thiat is so beautiful!! Thanks for sharing it!

No problem...everyone thinks it's embroidery...Actually this was the first quilt I took a class on as a beginner...I like to just dive into things even if beyond me but loved learning how much the sewing machine was able to do...
