Happy New Year Everyone! I’ve been quiet here on the Sideroad but I have been stitching. Here is a little 18”x21” Bowtie mini I made for Christmas.
Borders are always tough for me so here is how I did this quilt.
I copied the above quilting design on a piece of light plastic with a permanent marker. Actually, a plastic cutting mat from the dollar store. Then I cut out half the design as in the picture below.
Using my invisible quilt marking pen I traced half the design then flipped it over and traced the other half.
I used my walking foot to do the quilting. This worked so well I will be looking for more quilting designs to use this easy peasy method. What do you think?
If I can get my old PC to co-operate I hope to do some more blogs posts soon. Thanks, for stopping by and all the best in 2013 to all of you.
