Use your Machine Embroidery Quilt? You bet!


Quilters who are not already a machine embroidery enthusiast can just find in the craft once they realize that they are engrossed in their quilting machine embroidery could include.

Embroidery is a traditional way to add special decorative touches to duvets. Or by hand or machine, can be a quilter accent his or her creation with embroidered flowers or other accents. But today the machine embroidery-for those who are willing to try the-quilting can quite different.

For example, a quilter, the use of a simple embroidery design to let the machine "Duvet" the project. Simple one color designs work best, especially for the beginner.

If you want to give this a try, are looking for a embroidery design that is simple – one that you can visualize stitched in a quilt. Some inspired designs work well redwork. Other simple designs such as flowers, circles, Sun/Moon, houses, heart-there are all kinds of designs to choose from-can work well as quilting thread stitches.

Make sure your quilt top of theme in mind. We all know and love of the traditional beauty of the double wedding ring quilt. While the top quilt beautiful with its variety of color, is the quilt back just as free with its simple stitching that the design on top.

What if you can a machine embroidery quilt hearts in the quilt design? That would make an unexpected Touch your duvet truly unique.

Have you ever needed to throw together a quick quilt? Many quilting Pros laugh at the idea, but sometimes we have to give a quick gift and want to make it personal. Round quilts and baby quilts are very easy to make on a machine embroidery.

Just hoop your upper fabric, batting and backing vocalist tissue in an embroidery hoop. Choose a design and get started! Even if you can you the solid color fabrics are beautiful quilt quilting, a fast, complete with the embroidery machine in no time!

Some ideas for a baby blanket for a boy should use contours of soccer balls, airplanes, trucks, trains, etc., for your quilting pattern. The hardest part of your work will be re-hooping tissue and push the "start" button!

Ideas for a baby blanket for a girl include outlines of flowers, baskets, dolls, kittens, etc.

The above method used machine embroidery on relatively small duvets. Larger duvets can happen the same way or with machine embroidery can be padded by individual quilt blocks. Experiment to decide which method is easiest for you and don't forget that the machine embroidery quilting method with any unique project may change.

If you already have a pattern on embroidery file can't find it, ask a digitizer to create one to help. A digitizer takes art images such as drawings, illustrations and fonts and change them via the computer to a random pattern. So if you would for your family tree to be with a tree pattern quilted wall hanging, you can create a digitizer for you.

Tell your digitizer that you want to use the image for quilting. The digitizer will have to enter plans accordingly.

Quilting is rich in tradition and that is why many true-blue Quilters don't like the idea of using the machine embroidery quilt to their projects. Isn't it great to try new ideas and techniques? Remember, not too long ago refused to consider machine Quilters quilting thread all! Embroidery machines will never replace Quilters can, but it a fun and rewarding sewing technique to try from time to time.
