Aqua Marine Ambience

Well I have made a start on the Aqua Marine Ambience Quilt by Jenny and Simon Haskins.
My version I have called Musculan Me.
I have only half completed the First Block of this quilt. So I hope to have the block completed by tomorrow afternoon.
I will post a photo of the first completed Block then.
I am doing mine on White Silk fabric, with pink and Beige coloured threads.
This one i felt needed to go on my bed, but my husband and I share the bed so that is were the colour combination came in. So I have had to share the colours a little. So he doesn't start to feel a little on the feminine side. So I have chosen the colours to suit the both of us.
I hope you all like it.
I have now move donto the 2nd Block already and it is only Sunday. Wow I am really getting the hang of things.

Maybe by the end of the week I might have this quilt completed, well maybe no quilted. But i will have all of the blocks finished.
Well it is mid week and i am almost finished Block 2 of this beautiful quilt.
I am so excited about getting it finished. My machines just can't embroider quick enough for my liking....lol.
Just want it all finished and completely quilted and on my bed.

Soft light Quilt Project

I am working on another embroidered quilt project this one I have called Soft light.
 I am embroidering this quilt with a Soft Light Metallic thread from Urban Zundt.
This is the centre piece of the quilt so far.
You can't really see the effect of the Thread it is fantastic when viewed with the naked eye. I will try and get a few more better pictures.

This one is incomplete, but it shows the effect of the thread i used.

Fire and Ice Embroidered Quilt Project

My Interpretation of Cabochon Treasures
I have called mine Fire and Ice



Designs in this quilt are original designs by KennyKreations designed and digitised by Christine.
you can purchase these designs just like i did from HERE.
Well i had completed half of my block for the Fire and Ice Embroidered Quilt.
Here is a few sneak Peaks
Here I have my Block Cut out for the Centre Medallion of the Quilt, I have put all of my registration marks on my block, then placed my templates were I need my design to embroider, then done my markings hooped it up and off I go!!!
Here I have stitched out the first color choice, then onto the second color choice, this design has taken me 80 minutes to embroider, mind you I have had to change thread colors about 6 times, during the embroidering of only half a block. This is the left side of the centre block for my quilt.
Here I have added the second color and almost finished sewing for that color, now onto the next picture, of todays project.


Here is the finished right hand side of my Block completed today, I have the left hand side of the block already in the hoop and on the machine, hopefully will continue to sew the remainder of the block while I am here Blogging. Anyway I plan to have the Centre Block completed today being Sunday, then finishe the rest of the Blocks during the week after work, So i am guessing it will take me roughly 2 weeks to finish the Quilt top, then get it quilted. So I will keep you updated on my progress as I get blocks completed.
Ok Centre Block of quilt is completed. Finally,
 I have now started going around the outsides of the block to fill in my design, this is were I am up to with this quilt so far.

This is were I am at so far with this quilt, But I should be finishing this one before moving onto another, but i couldn't help myself I have 4 embroidered quilt projects all going at once, one per machine.

I am waiting for some more of the Sticky stabiliser to arrive befor I can embroider any more of this quilt. So i guess it is time to go finish a couple of the other quilts. Until i can get this one finished.

Newest Embroidery Projects

Well I have started a New Embroidery Project today. My husband has been so kind and let me have the full weekend to do whatever I please. So I decided I would create an embroidered quilt.
But instead I decided I would start 3 embroidered quilts.....lol. I had a hard time deciding on which one I wanted to make so I decided I would do the 3 of them. So I have started.
Here is the starting block of my Moulin Rouge Quilt.
The start of my great adventure.
Here I have marked out my block with all the marks i need to make in order to get my embroidery designs in the exact placement i want them.
Here I have printed out all of my templates ready to place them were I need them on the fabric block, this will ensure that, all the designs line up perfectly.
Here I have started the first Block of the Summer Wine Quilt i am making. I have sewn an outline of the design on the fabrics block, i have them layed a piece of fabric over the outline and stitched another outline of the design i am embroidering.
Here I have trimmed away the excess of the fabric i have stitched outlines around, I am now ready to stitch my complete design onto the Block. So I guess you can call it Embroidered Applique.
