quilting with embroidery machine
For those of you who quilt using an embroidery pattern: is there any trick to doing this, or is it as straightforward as it seems? I haven't tried this yet, but find the idea intriguing. Example here: http://www.emblibrary.com/EL/Product...roductID=X0633
Thanks!

I use myembroidery machine and my embroidery machine only to do my quilting. I don'thave the patience to FMQ. I have aviking ruby that I use for the quilting and another viking 100class to do mypiecing with. <o></o>
You needto hoop each section. I align each areaup before I let the machine do its own job.

I'm doing this right now. The quilt is only about 60X70. I have Diagonal quilted on the regular machine and now am embroidering small spools of thread between the blocks where there isn't any stitching. I'm using my 4X4 hoop and it takes about 20 minutes per motif (there are 24 of them). I'm liking the look and have had no problem with the hooping. I'm using Pellon cotton batting (Warm&White thickness). I did a baby quilt with the quilting patterns like you referenced and didn't care for the effect.mit was hard to find a design that didn't take away from the block
