Wow!  What a thought and what a lot of Research and Development!  Just like Herky Jerky Stitching with my pattern designs, but we let our embroidery machines do the stitching for us.

Five Different CD's that retail for $15.00 each.

Each CD encourages you through creation of the many blocks (stitched out two at a time, except the snow guy and feelin' groovy flowers) to make a quick wall hanging.  Instructions for piecing the blocks into the quilt shown are also provided.  You do not need to purchase the pattern design.  All instructions are provided.  Quantities are endless.  The smaller project on the first 3 and 5th CD's are a framed 5" x 7" gift size project that you cut the fabrics for and let the machine do the rest of the work.

Color Instructions and cutting templates are provided on each CD in PDF format.  Design requires a 5" x 7" stitchable area within your hoop and is formatted in .art, .hus, .pes, .vip and .jef

In embroidery machine terminology, these are appliqué projects.  I provide the files that you download to your machine.  Your responsibility is to trace templates from my patterns (that are on the CD in PDF format) to fusible webbing and then press the fusible pieces to colored fabrics and cut them out.  Now let the embroidery machine take over.  First, the embroidery machine will stitch out placement outlines for all of the colored pieces within a block.  You remove the entire hoop and press in your fusible web pieces.  Return the hoop and let me finish your project by stitching out the Herky Jerky stitching around the pieces.  Trim away threads, square up your appliqué blocks and you're finished!
