I still need to wash out the stabilizer I used, but I just love it! I’m going to make the design in a couple of different sizes. I’m still not sure how I feel about the textured moon, but I might just stick with it! We’ll see! Wish me luck!
I made a gorgeous pillow. I even used piping! That was a new experience for me, but I think it turned out well! Maybe I should do a tutorial on piping? It’s kind of confusing if you’ve never done it before. Anyways, I embroidered this pillow. It’s an Anita Goodesign from February. I think it turned out very well!
I’ve recently finished a commission quilt and now I’m onto my next one. In the meantime I decided to digitize and embroider out a Harley Quinn design. It’s for a later project, but I figured I would have that running in the background!
I wanted to for a long time, and now I’m finally getting all of my digitizing done! I know it took a while, because I started talking about it months ago. Since my injury, I haven’t been able to sew much, but I started to use all of the other sewing stuff I have. I started to pound out embroideries, and then I also started to use my digitizing software. In fact, all through the summer, take 20% off my embroidery patterns with promo code: 20Emb.

I’ve been working on these for a sample quilt for work. Since I can’t do much sewing because of the pain in my neck from the Bell’s Palsy, I’ve been doing some embroidery. I think these are just the cutest! I’ve done a couple on purple and yellow flannel, and it’s just as cute! I’ll be posting picture later this week.
I’ve been struck with this darn Bell’s Palsy and have had a hell of a time sewing with it. I paralyzed the right side of my face, as well as my right neck and shoulder. I’m trying to power through though! I’ve been doing a lot of embroidery because I can push the start button and walk away… It’s amazing! I started making these so I could teach a class on them, and now I’m just in love with them! I’ve made about 10 already, and I’ve gotten plenty more vinyl! Wish me luck!
I went on ahead and got a whole black completed. I have quite a few more squares already embroidered, but just haven’t gotten them together yet. I just love this design, and I can’t wait to put it all together to make a quilt.
I’ve been trying to put that embroidery machine to good use. This is the latest project I am teaching class on at the shop. I still have a couple of blocks to go, and then I still have to figure out the border… Thinking maybe an embroidered stippled block… not sure yet, but I’m working on it! With me luck!
I haven’t posted much lately… I haven’t done much lately. I was horribly sick, but now I’m back on the grind. I started with this gorgeous pillow, and I have an embroidered tile scene I’m working on as well. I’ll make sure to post it later. Anyway… This is a design called “Moroccan Tile” and it’s made by Viking. We’re doing a class on it at work, so I better get on it because this is only half the design! The pillow will be 4 blocks and I only have 2 more to go! Wish me luck!
I finished it and it is currently in the washing machine. I’m so excited for the way it turned out. The Wonderfil thread I’m using is super awesome! Their variegated colors are just to die for! I think it has quite a bit of movement, and the embroideries just make it pop! I used a bright blue flannel for the backing as well as the binding, and I think it is just perfect! I just have to schedule the class for this fun quilt at work! Now if you’ll excuse me, I have to get back to a commission quilt.
