Embroidery Quilting Designs
Making Quilts is a unique art form. Embroidery quilting is decorating fabric with different colors and various designs to create a wide variety of styles to fit into all occasions and decors. Quilting actually means combining fabric pieces with a soft interlining using wool or cotton thread. The Quilt top is traditionally sewn into an attractive arrangement. The love of quilting has been around for a very long time and has now combined with the love of embroidery for the modern craftperson. It is not uncommon to see decorative stitching used to make the quilt look more attractive. Embroidery can either be done by machine or by hand. Though one can create a quilt the old fashioned way by hand stitching, machine embroidery quilting designs offer the quilter a wonderful option that is very attractive and much quicker in this busy day and age.
Let’s have a look at some of the main reasons for combining fabric and Embroidery Designs instead of just fabric alone when making quilts:
To enhance the beauty of the quilt- Embroidering and designing around coordinating fabrics can enhance the beauty of plain colored fabrics and textures, making the finished project more interesting.
For every occasion – By using seasonal embroidery patterns and fabrics, the quilter can create projects that fit the occasion they are made for. The embroidery quilting designs add fun and festive appeal to the creation.
To ensure variation- By using different embroidery quilting designs and fabrics, the quilter can use similar Quilt Block shapes as they have on another quilt and the new quilt takes on a completely different personality.
What type of designs to look for?
Decorative Machine Embroidery Quilting Designs – There are many different types of designs that work well when making quilts. Filled stitch, redwork, colorwork, and appliqué are a few types to try. Whether the quilter is making a Baby Quilt, Patchwork Quilt, elegant, vintage or special holiday quilt, the desired results will be achieved by carefully choosing the right designs and fabrics and combining them into an attractive arrangement.
Feather Quilting Designs – The traditional method of hand quilting can be long and tedious. Or to get it professionally Quilted with a long arm machine can be very expensive. An alternative is to use quilting designs made for the home embroidery machine. The double stitched designs have no jump stitches and come in a variety of patterns. With the continuous hoop available for some machines, a quilt can quickly and easily be quilted on the embroidery machine, though larger quilts are more difficult using this method because of the bulk.
The quality and the appearance of the quilt is determined by the fabric’s thread count, which quilting patterns are used and the embroidery quilting designs chosen to decorate it. When the fabric thread count is high, the texture is better and more durable than a lower thread count. This is why it is important to choose good quality fabrics, rather than lower quality ‘economy’ fabrics when making quilts. The quilter will spend a substantial amount of time and money creating the quilt and the very best materials should be used. There are ample resources available on the internet where the quilter can shop for supplies, which is especially helpful for those who live in areas without a quality Quilt Fabric shop. One such virtual marketplace that the serious quilter will surely enjoy, is EmbroideryQuilter.com, which specializes in embroidery quilting designs, patterns, fabrics and supplies for all your embroidery and quilting needs.
