This is a applique church from Smart Needle. I am working on a road quilt for my grandson's 3rd birthday next week. I did change the block here by echo quilting around the church. I emb the whole thing on to batting then fabric then when it came time to echo quilt it I added the backing fabric to it so it would quilted all @ once.

It looks super!!! Nice work~

Yes the echo quilting is a feature on my machine, it will design the stitches to go around the center design or where ever I want to put it. It will do other designs as well. Thanks Pam. Hugs & **

Going to be nice hugs

I guess you will have to be surprised! Thanks Kim, hugs &**

That is really nice and gives him more texture to run his fingers and cars on. Good start on the first block.
