Quilting & Designing

I've really enjoyed learning how to use my Pantovision. Pantovision is basically digital designs hooked up to my longarm. I still steer and operate my machine; it's not run by a computer, but I have the ability to steer from the front of the machine and follow the digital design. For anyone who has done pantograph work from behind the machine, you will know how hard it is. But steering from the front of the machine, where you can actually see what is happening as you quilt, is a wonderful experience! It's so much fun! Let me know if you're interested in learning how to quilt your quilt using my longarm, either free motion or using a digital design to follow. I teach lessons!

Here are some quilts I've finished recently for customers:

This one is the mystery quilt our guild did this year. I love the color choices! Here's the back. . . .

and the front. . . 

This was really fun to quilt because of the 3-D pinwheels. Basically, I only quilted on the white to help the colors really pop!

I'm really proud of this next quilt because not only did I custom quilt it, but I also designed the quilt. Here's the back. . .

and the center section. . .

Star Bright Beginning Quilting - from start to finish!

This Star Bright class was super fun! The quilt pattern is based on Swim Bike Quilt's pattern. I had four students, three of which were able to completely finish their quilts. The fourth student just needs to finish the binding and quickly make another complete quilt before Christmas for two of her boys who share a room!

Here's my sample:

Here are the quilts my students finished. Aren't their color choices amazing?
