However, there will be an optional (to be purchased) embroidered applique version available which will have more stuff going on - and potentially some different edge finishes.

Kind regards,
Sarah

When will this optional version be available? (I have to admit, the quilt look quite tame compared to your other work. )

If the store is renting time and selling the Go dies, I'll bet they have an adapter there.

The applique for months 6, 7, 8, 10 and 11 can be done in the hoop so this is the "machine embroidery".
The "embroidered applique" (i.e. embellished applique in the hoop) will be available by June 1! A little behind schedule on that one, but it's coming along slowly but surely

Can't wait to see what you come up with. Enjoying this so far!

Sarah, a general question about your embroidery/quilt designs packages. Do they generally require multi-hooping (for those of us that don't have gigantic 830 hoops)? If so, are directions included with the design package? If this information is elsewhere, could you point us to it? This question of alignment using Accuquilt shapes came up on the yahoo accuquilt forum about the hearts quilt that is being promoted on the accuquilt site this week. Thanks for any information!

Hi Susan,

All of my CDs have instructions on how to do multiple hoopings. You will generally need a hoop that is at least 5"x7", a Bernina large oval is even better (that is 5.5"x8" or so, depending on the shape of the design!). You definitely do NOT need a Bernina Jumbo hoop!

The quilt on the AccuQuilt web site (Heart of my Heart) is a pattern for basic machine applique. You could use the hearts from my GO! Be Dazzled collection, but it would require figuring out the center for each heart on the quilt.

Hope this helps!
Sarah

Thanks Sarah, do you mind if I copy paste your answer on the other forum?

Susan - not at all! Thanks for doing it

To me, it's always interesting to see someone use embroidery machines on quilts. I love it, but I HATE to multi-hoop if the hoop has to be rotated. Check out the last technique in this little video. Now, why wasn't I smart enough to think of that! Even Ricky's Arabesque Dies could be used with this technique. Sweet!

I think I no longer have Bernina 830 envy!

Thanks for posting the link, this opens up all sorts of possibilties and reduces some of the limitations for those of us with smaller hooping capabilties....like you say, why didn't I think of that!!......

Had a go and used and then just upgraded to the studio. Love it! Alo got adaptor for go dies. Since the dies for the baby work on the Go without n adaptor, I think the Go adaptor for the studio is all you need. Think the Baby go is limited in size of dies it can use but is same depth/ height as go which is what the go adaptor does--raises height of die for for studio Adaptors are not very expensive. I bought biggest size you get as I can use smaller dies with it but can't use larger dies (ie, for strips) with the smaller of the adaptors. Hope this makes sense.

Sometime, one of us should borrow a Go! Baby die just to see if it works with the Studio and adapter. On the other hand, I'll bet we could email Accuquilt and ask. They are so responsive. Congratulations on the Studio. Isn't it just downright fun to cut fabric now?
