    Default Purple mendhi hearts

    I recently finished a large quilt with purple piano key borders. I had lots of leftovers, which made projects so easy with borders done. I stitched these mendhi hearts on my embroidery machine, once again, I used a design I purchased from Designs by Ju Ju. Each heart uses 3 colors and takes 30 minutes to stitch out. It is a real fun design to watch the machine stitch out. It looks like doodling with lots of curves. I stitched four of the hearts together, I did not use a pattern. I added already made borders and it was almost done. I added free motion quilting in white area as well as outline stitched hearts. The hearts kind of puff out surrounded by small scale quilting. It measures 17 1/2 inches square. Still needs binding, I ran out of purple fabric!

    I looked for the Mendhi Hearts by JuJu, but they were not the same one on her site as
    the one you used. I would love to have that machine embroider design if I could find it.

    Oh how pretty your project came out. I love the various shades of purple! Do you use embroidery software with your machine? I am a beginner. Thanks!
