I do my designs without jumps too, they are a pain. It takes a lot longer when designing them but it is worth it. No threads to keep trimming. Its taken 5 years to design my web site and get the designs ready for embroidery as well as quilting. My customers love the fact that there are no jumps in the designs, not even in the feathers or the celtic.

Hi Julia...what is the address for your embroidery site where you have designs without jump stitches...Thanks

I don't know about Bernina, but Pfaff has a hoop that has 2 'top' pieces - one is smaller and is easier to hoop with quilts.

I would love to try jps114a ...will this fit my hoop size of 130mm x 240mm in the XXX format...Thank you so much for letting me try this design out ...your prices are very good... I know that I will buy more if this sews out well on my machine..all embroidery machine seen to sew out a little different with the same patterns. I also have the number1+ by husqvarna but it only has the 4x4 hoop size. but have tired the same designs on both machine and they do sew out a little different.

Here is a idea for your site ..you may want to put up one of the smaller designs as a free download and this way folks can see how your designs sew out.. A lot of the site do this and I think it would help you with sales seeing you are a new site. just a thought, good luck with you site... :D

For the quilts you have done with the verious stabilizers, which do you like the best, or does it depend on the type of design? Some can be quite a pain to remove, and you would want every last bit gone.... Do you ever use multiple layers of stabilizer?

Thanks!

wWhen you quilt a quilt with an embroidery machine, you don't HAVE to use a stabilizer. You can either hoop the quilt itself. Just open the hoop as wide as it will open.

Or, use an adhesive stabilizer. Hoop it with the adhesive up - usually you'll have to dampen the adhesive just before you pat the quilt on it- and lay the quilt on TOP of it. Pat the quilt firmly in place. In other words, DON'T HOOP the quilt.

All the other 'rules' about hooping apply: line up the quilt as you would line up your fabric for embroidering. If the machine starts to sew in the 'wrong' place, stop immediately and fix the problem.

I hope this helps.
