My style has changed through the years so many of you, if you’re new to Designs, might find the delicate look of the Wisteria Quilt a bit surprising. Today, my work is bolder, brighter and a bit more contemporary. But I learned so much from creating all of the quilts showcased in Contemporary Machine-Embroidered Quilts.

I am pretty new to machine quilting. I bought a Janome 9500 combo machine and love the embroidery part. Been doing baby quilts, Just becasue I love those babies, there is always someone that is adding a new bundle to the family. I recently did a quilt with the Name applique diagonially down the front of the quilt and was pleased with the result. The winner of the quilt goes to my daughter-in-laws neice. Due in June. I still love to use my Pfaff for the machine quilting. My Janome machine does all that and more I am sure, so far I have only used the embroidery features. I love the Magazine, simply beautiful projects.!
Hi- The beautiful projects in Designs in Machine Embroidery magazine are what prompted me to upgrade from a Janome 350E to the Janome MC11000 machine. I wanted a machine that could do an 8 x 8 quilt block. I am currently working on In the hoop purse accessories and the Hoopsisters Dresden plate quilt.
Your magazine and project contributors inspire creativity and give great instructions.
Thank You!
I was so excited to learn digitizing with my Bernina so that I could create a one of a kind wildflower quilt. I'm at a stand still. I can visualize what I want but can't seem to get there. Since my time and resources are now limited, I will continue to struggle - I never give up
I love to use my Bernina to embroider quilts and other things. I have also done my labels for the back of my quilts using the embroidery module.

I am currently working on a pieced, quilted handbag. I purchased the pattern several years ago, but kept putting it off thinking it was a lot of work. Well, i started on it yesterday. The main part of the bag is pieced log cabin squares. The ends are just plain quilted calico---it is here I intend to use my embroidery machine to add some bright flowers. I know it will be gorgeous when it is complete, and I hope to complete it by the weekends' end!
When I quilt squares with my embroidery machine I iron on iron on batting on the back of the material with a tear-a-way stabilizer.

I have a Quilt Designer II and embroidered a quilt with sock monkeys on it and the loaded the quilt onto my frame and quilted it with my QD II. My grandson loves his quilt even though I am still learning and the stitches are not even, now I am doing a quilt for my granddaughter. I love my embroidery machine!
I was thrilled to finally get my embroidery machine. I did not know there were so many things that you could do with them. I learned how to do paper piece quilting by doing it on my embroidery machine. In fact my first two projects I ever created on my embroidery machine were a paper pieced Christmas stocking and an applique Christmas ball to hang on my tree. My machine came with a pretty basic autostitch program for digitizing and I was able to create the stitches for both of my projects using simple outlines and sending different color blocks to the machine multiple times. That was a few years ago. Since then I have learned to hand punch my designs and have been learning to do free hand quilting. My best advice I can give to anyone is to have fun and don't be afraid to make a mistake. Sometimes we are our own worst critics.
