Thanks for sharing Rossie, it's truly lovely.
I was wondering what to do with all those old doileys I have, but I think this idea might be a bit too ambitious for me, I was thinking more along the lines of placemats. LOL!
hugs n roses, M
Thank you Meganne. NO it's not to ambitious for you. It needn't be finished "yesterday: Just take your time- place the doileys on the back ground fabric - Use webbing from the Visoflex to keep it down ( Iron) and then embroider your designs on it. You will go mad looking for JUST the right design for that particular doiley , but just think of the end result. My squares were 12 1/2 unfinished (12 " finished) and I quilted as I went. ( joining 2 sections together at a time and then the borders were last. Made it more managable under the machine.
Ros, this ia special - thank you for sharing it.
This looks beautiful. I would love to see closer. Even clicking on the picture doesn't make it much bigger. *4U
