This was my first attempt at a window design. Thousands of stitches, but

a pleasure to do. Framed by my other half.

Pat & Ron, you both did a great job. I really love this piece. So are the borders done after? What is it's size and it is from BFC-Creations?

Thanks Shirlene. Yes it is from BFC, hold
on while I go and measure it ! It is 18inches high by 14inches wide. The size
of the designs are 4inches square, I think
that's the smallest size. When all the
squares were done, I joined them together
with a zig-zag stitch, and then did a
satin stitch down twice, and three times
across.

Oh my - I love this set.

thank you for explaining.
I want to try to make one and I thought you joined with narrow strips of material. this seems much easier and more likely to get it straight too I suppose.
It is VERY BEAUTIFUL

Thanks from both of us. Do have a go at
one of these windows, they really are easy. I used the 4x4 size, and there were
12 squares to do, then it was just a
question of joining them together.

Pat this is lovely. Because I have something I will need to join soon in similar style, did you just butt the pieces together and zigzag, so at all times the right side of design is upper-most? Cause I was thinking of maybe right sides together and straight stitch extremely close to edge of satin stitch...Do let me know please...

Thank you. Yes, I did butt the pieces
together, right side uppermost, and did
a zig-zag stitch to join them, and then
did a satin stitch twice down, and three
times across. If you have already done
something with a satin stitch border,
then joining them with a zigzag stitch
will be all that is needed. *4U
by kezza2sew 25 Dec 2008
yes thanks Pat, it does have the satin stitch border all around...So I am please I just happened to clik on this page and saw your beatuiful piece of work...Must have meant to be.

Thank you. It is as easy as any other
machine embroidery, when the squares have been embroidered, it's just a question of
joining them together. *4U
