I have never used my sewing machine for embroidery, only making the usual things lol clothes, keep saying will have a go, although I am currently making a quilt (patchwork American style) to go with the new decor of my bedroom that hubby did for me.

PLEASE SHOW YOUR QUILT
if that is allowed , or what you have done so far.
i have made patch work cushions they take a long time to make.

I have made modern quilts this is one i finished a few weeks a go.
let me know what you think.
A lady who i make quilts with hates it because its not traditional.
thank you for your comments

Oh my what work! you have embroidered all this WOW! I can admire anything that this amount of work has gone into.

I like your friend prefer the old fashioned look in quits. But that I hope doesn't put you off this is beautiful and far more skilled than my efforts.

I have only ever made A Patchwork cusion, and I'm now on square 7 of 74 lol so one hopes I finish it lol I will take some picks, I have a suggestion, why don't you start a new thread (new topic) Patchwork and show some of your stuff I'm sure lots of people would like to see more of your beautiful work, I would like to see some close ups of the pictures in the quilt they look fab!

this is after all a craft site and that is definatly a craft! I'm sure they will not mind as they sell threads etc in CC

Keep up this excellent work Dawn x
