I took a class a few months ago about this technique. I have done it on a small wallhanging. It is easy to understand and her directions are easy to follow. I believe she has a You Tube tutorial. I can't think of any "cons".

I bought it recently and am in the process of doing my first quilt with it - I am using the plain stipple, and I love how it looks (large size stippling - not anything that could overquilt). I am having a learning curve (I forgot to flip the design once) but it is so exciting to make my quilt look like somebody who knew what they were doing quilted it. I have to use the small size of her design to fit my 6X10 hoop, but once you get going, it is pretty easy!

Sval, here are some pics to show how it is done. Also to show size as someone thought it would be too small... bit it is a great size. Remember this is my first try, so it definitely has a few mistakes while I learned the techNiue AND let me also say the basting tape used on the hoop makes a HUGE difference in making it easier to line up.

I have an ellisimo gold 2 and I've heard that the designs don't work well on it without upgrades installed in a certain order. Does anyone have an ellisimo and tried this? Did it work for you? It looks fantastic!

I used this method on a table runner and I think it is genius! So easy to get the designs lined up and my fall table runner that sat there made for two years waiting for me to free motion quilt is now complete and ready for the season. Absolutely LOVE this method and will be doing my own quilts from now on! My free motion is awful as I am no artist, so this just works so well for me.
