It looks really interesting and I thought of all the folks I've heard say they want to make a quilt but were afraid, so you know how to embroider.......take a look.

That is really neat, thanks for sharing.

Merci;

Thanks Jrob! I also D/L the Turned Ribbon design. I found the instructions for the design on the "Designs in Machine Embroidery" website and D/L the pdf file. I will attempt to attach the address for the pdf file.

I can't wait... I'm going to have to buy a set and give this a whirl!

Reggie, if you are like a lot of us...you download another design instead of sewing all of those designs you already have!!

Gerry you are too funny and TOO honest!

Jerrilyn, this looks wonderful!!! Thank you for the heads-up on it. I definitely will look into this!! Thanks, Laura*

They have terrific squares. I love those butterflies!

Wow this is worth a try!

Oh, Jerrilyn, Hoopsisters are terriffic!! My dealer has a lot of their quilts, and they turn out just fantastic! As a matter of fact, one of the Hoopsisters is coming to our dealer for a course in August, I think, I'll have to check it out. These work up perfectly, and then you just strip them together. Now if my dealer can do a quilt, anybody can, as she herself says, hee hee hee. Thanks for posting, I thought everybody knew these gals, duh. Hee hee hee, hugs, Marji

nope, this was the first I had seen of them....wish I had done it first! It's really nothing but paper piecing with an embroidery machine.;)

Yes, exactly! It's really easy, and they are such fun women, we had them here for a seminar. They have a free strip block on their yahoo group if you join. Hugs,M

Please tell me what that means! Thanks Hon.

It means that you can make a quilt square perfectly pieced in the hoop by following the directions in the embroidery file. You then sew several together to make a quilt top. I keep hearing "I thought I'd try quilting some day, but am afraid of trying because it looks too hard. Well, if you can embroider, you can make a pieced quilt square now";)
