Gypsy

Gypsy is an original quilt design, by Sharon Schamber, for machine embriodered applique. Sharon is well known for detailed and thorough instructions, and this embroidered quilt is no exception. On the instructional PDF, Sharon guides you, visually, through the how-to techniques for each unit of the quilt. You will be amazed by what you create with Sharon by your side, and her designs at your fingertips.

With Gypsy, Sharon will introduce you to Design Align: Precise Embroidery Alignment System. Design Align is revolutionary and enables you to achieve seamless alignment! In addition, Sharon's raw-edge applique technique will make your embroidered applique unbelievably soft, and it's all completed in the hoop!

When completed, Gypsy will be a finished quilt top, which can be sandwiched, basted and quilted to your preferences. The stunning and detailed embroidery can serve as the perfect guide for quilting.
