A little Sneak Peek at what I am up to...I am making a Wedding Quilt for my nephew and bride...I have been wanting to learn to use my 14" x 14" hoop so I decided no time like the present...and with blocks finishing at about 16" x 16" it doesn't take as many!! So I digitized this specifically for this large hoop... it's tricky though as this hoop stitches one half then you turn the hoop and it stitches the other half...and I have no control over where the design will split...so digitizing to eliminate jumps in the design was interesting to say the least...anyway, I am pleased with it. I will put it together as a Quilt-As-You-Go...One block down...19 to go! Each block will have a different feather quilt design in the center, with the corner floral being the same...First photo is the front, second is the back...

This is beautiful what a nice large hoop to work with great work love it

Oh Kim How beautiful it will be. Sure wish I had your talent.

KIM!!!!!

It will be a wonderful Wedding Quilt. The block is the result of an excellent job. Good luck for the future.

Lovely on the back, too!

That is beautiful. They will be thrilled and treasure it forever.

just lovely, they will be thrilled. Love making large quilt blocks, I am planning to make one for my ne bedroom. Just have to find time,

Wow, Kim-so beautiful--I tried studying it a bit. Did you use a small twin needle in your embroidery machine for this design in parts of it? I can't really determine. Cataract is a growing but it looks like some stitches are raised like pintuck. It is just gorgeous.

Thank you, Patti...I did not use a wing needle on this...

WOW! WOW! WOW! Your talent knows no bounds! Your Nephew and his new Bride will cherish this forever. What an heirloom Kim, great job, my friend. Love Chris

Brilliant! Great designs. The quilt promises to be wonderful.
My largest hoop is 20x36 cm or a bit smaller than 8" x 14", my largest square one 8". I don't particularly like rehooping although accurate placement on my Ruby seems to work well.

What an Awesome project Quilt!!!Stunning work you are doing!!!beautiful!!

Gorgeous!! I have that hoop but have never used it, I don't know how to digitize but have seen some designs that are extra large so thank you for giving me the inspirationto give it a try.

So beautiful!!! They will cherish this gift!!

This is going to be a very special quilt and gift. A lucky couple to receive something so great.

Oh what a loving gift!
You are so good at this. You sure have found your 'talent'. I only WISH I had a machine big enough to try a quilt like this! Maybe I would get my anniversary quilt made :(

This is gorgeous, I wish that I was as talented as you are.
