has anyone made or thinking of making this style of quilt? If so, what is some of your thoughts?

Cyn

I'm not sure what that is.

it is made using machine embroidery designs. if you google latte quilt you can see pictures of it . it is beautiful.

Cyn

I looked it up and it is beautiful!

I have the book and some of the fabric...but the fabric & thread is soooooo expensive. It will probably take me another six months to collect all the fabric and then I'll be ready, so, I figure I'll probably start it next summer. It will make a great summer project, embroidering the blocks.

I made one, and it was the first embroidery project I did on my Bernina 440. I'd say that I learned everything I know about embroidery from doing it, especially how to retrieve designs gone wrong! Because mine is a 5.5mm machine and not a 9mm Artista it doesn't look quite the same but I am pleased with how it turned out.

I've seen them done in cottons and would choose to do that if I ever make another one.

I want to do the real thing,but I'm of doing one on cotton first.
I have been reading a lot about the quilt as you go method, maybe I could get it finnished. I have so many q-tops. I perfer to peice the tops than quilt. How did you quilt yours?

I made it. It was a fun pattern to do. I did mine in cotton as I am not about to spend the money to buy dupioni silk.
