anita goodesign quilting cd
#1
Has anyone used any of her designs for a quilt? I'm wondering how hard it is to repeat a design, and if it has to be done in an embroidery frame or can you use the design as free motion. Thanks for any input.

I use Anita Goodesign embroidery designs quite a bit and always use them with a hoop in my embroidery machine. I have used them in a quilt, using a design in each block. I embroidered the blocks before I assembled the quilt.
I'm not clear on what the question about using the cards as free motion. Can you clarify?

I would think not, because when you embroider, the hoop moves, not the sewing machine, but if you have your machine hooked up to a quilt on a frame, the machine isn't going to move and the needle will continue to drop in the same spot without the embroidery hoop. The embroidery CD is designed to move the hoop in the direction the programming tells it.
