How to create an image that looks like free-motion quilting
The header for the Quilting Board has a curved line that looks like sewing. I've been trying to figure out how to draw free-motion quilting in a graphics software package. Some allow straight lines to be converted easily to dashes that look like sewing. Photoshop allows you to manually set the angle of a line, but this is not easy when trying to do a free-motion quilt design in an image.
Any recommendations for software that you can use to draw free-motion quilting designs that look like sewing ? SewCalGal |
that is a great question

I have no idea, I don't use any kind of software like that.

If you are using Windows -- there is an applet that is part of Windows called Paint. You can use a pencil and doodle any way you want -- it also has some shapes. It is also a good way to do those practices to get the brain in sync with how you want to quilt.

I haven't figured it out yet either, and will be watching for others' suggestions. I suspect it's possible in Illustrator, but I don't know it well enough to figure it out yet.
