    Oh my goodness! This is exactly what I'm doing right now, for my best friend! She found 63 embroidered panels her dear friend, who died several years ago, had hand embroidered. She asked me to make 7 quilt tops for her 7 granddaughters. What a challenge! but well worth the effort for my friend.

    Oh my gosh, someone really spent quite a bit of time doing absolutely beautiful embroidery. I am glad that the folks are making this into a heirloom quilt. Hands down favorite block was the unfinished one, It is wonderful that they included it in the quilt. Love that it was quilted around the embroidery. Great video! Thank you.

    I am so glad I found you! In a bag of fabric, and projects in various stages of completion, donated to my charity sewing group, I found several embroidered teacup blocks. All were embroidered with the maker's name. I have been looking for an idea to put them together...NOW I have one! Thank you so much for the inspiration.

  • @kakylong2
    @kakylong2 Před 3 měsíci +3

    Wow! That was a lot of work Ms. Lois put into those squares. I've never pieced my backing before to put a label on. I usually turn under the edges of the label & sew it directly to the quilt back before hand quilting. I like how the 10th piece was the label. Awesome idea. 😊

    • @sewcharmingquiltshop
      @sewcharmingquiltshop  Před 3 měsíci +1

      I usually do that too but since I had a square she made this way seemed more appropriate for this project. 😁

    This video is exactly what I’ve been looking for. I have two partially done tops that I started at a quilt retreat many years ago with my Mom. She’s now gone and along with those two pieces she gifted me her all of her quilt material. It’s been so emotional just looking at the fabric never mind completely overwhelmed at what to with it all. My plan was to make a quilt or throw pillows for each of my 5 siblings.
    Thank you so much for sharing your work. ❤️🇨🇦

    Hello this quilt turned out so nice, i like all the embroidery designs. Even the sashings were a perfect choice in color. Of course the quilting was beautiful also. The client is really going to be happy with the way this turned out. Thanks for taking the time to show it step by step the process along the way. I too have some Brazilian embroidered pieces. That someday I'm going to put into a quilt. I will keep this video to help me remember the process. Looking forward to your next video.

    I enjoyed your video very much. I ama 68 yrs. old and have been embroidering since I was 9. For the past 30 years, I have concentrated on crewel embroidery. I have done some quilting and enjoyed it, but not as much as embroidery. However, when my husband retired a few years ago, he took up quilting with a passion. To my surprise he did an excellent job. We have been thinking about combining our skills and making wall hangings with a crewel embroidered center, and a quilt of a compatible pattern surrounding it. Your video wasn't exactly what we are considering doing, but it was encouraging. Thank you so much.

  • @marinaabad4995
    @marinaabad4995 Před 3 měsíci +1

    Wonderful and beautiful memory quilt. I have been doing a few with hand embroidered pieces left by my relatives. Embroidered pieces need Pellon Shapeflex on the back, just like a T-shirt/baby clothes quilt. It stabilizes the embroidery stitches and prevents distortion of the embroidery. This method is used by most memory quilters and kits that combine hand embroidery and pieced blocks.

    • @sewcharmingquiltshop
      @sewcharmingquiltshop  Před 3 měsíci

      Depending on the piece, yes. These didn’t need anything as they were sturdy.

      Yes! I do the same. I believe all longarmers return the extra material. Did someone not? If you’re taking about the excess I put on the quilt for the label and for rolling it on the machine, I did not charge the customer for that so it was my material. Just to be clear.
