Show & Tell Time! And a Genius Tip!

Howdy! Time to meet another fabulous bunny! This one was made by Jean Burke (aka quiltmamajb). Head on over to her Flickr stream and see the other great stuff she makes - including lots of beautiful quilts!
And how about this gorgeous piece by Emily Steed? I love the fabric with the stars that she used as the background! But look - she also shares a tip with everyone. . .

She used the dissolving Sulky stabilizer that I showed you all in the video about transferring embroidery patterns - but she doesn't waste it like I did. I usually cut a piece big enough to take up the whole hoop. She cut a piece just big enough for the embroidery and then quickly basted it in place by machine. No pins for your embroidery thread to catch on, no time spent hand-basting - and no waste! Thanks for the tip Emily!

You all are awesome! Keep sharing!

Best,
Wendi
