I was playing with my embroidery machine today and thought that I needed to stitch out a few of my shamrock blocks. These were originally designed for quilting, but I am really liking them for embroidery as well. They were so cute, I decided I really needed to design a quilt for them. This one is very simple (i.e.completed from beginning to end including the quilting in one day). All ready for St. Patrick's Day. Even when I know what I want to do, I find it useful to go back to Electric Quilt. It helped me to gauge the size of the sashing and borders compared to the blocks (4-1/2" finished size). This week my Electric Quilt video tutorial is very short. I will share with you how I brought the photos of my stitched out embroidery into Electric Quilt to assist with auditioning.

That was great Kari, thanks for sharing. I went to digitize a design for a baby quilt block hoping to use it as the quilting design in one step the other day. I quickly realized I've forgotten a lot of what I used to know about EQ Stitch/EQ7. Any chance you'd like to demo that process of creating an embroidery design with that software? Please pretty please. Your demos are so clear and I'm hoping it will all come back to me in just a quick run through. Many thanks!

Sorry Lila. I don't have EQ Stitch -- all my embroidery designs are done with Art and Stitch. I would recommend checking out some of Yvonne Menear's videos. Comments are closed.
