I am working on applique embroidery grapes for my Amish girlfriend. I need 44, she is cutting out the quilt and quilting it, double wedding ring. The jump stitches are not trimmed. I made 13 blocks at camp a week ago, and last Sat. Annas daughter Barb came down and I taught her to run the embroidery machine, she made 4 blocks. The quilt is for her brother. She loved it. Of course, they do not have machines like this. I just finished up 8 more and am just over half way. I am also working on my version of the Amish grape embroidery quilt in mini style. I have 3 sections sewn and the blues and purples match Annas colors for her rings. I think I will hand quilt my mini to match Annas grape quilt. The big quilt will not be done until this fall.
