I use a domestic machine, Husq Sapphire 850 ~ I found a great way to do custom designs, if I don't have time (or patience) to custom cut a template for chalk marking... I use the washaway stuff that we use for embroidery! I draw my design in a wash-away pencil or pen on my Wash-away stabilizer (wash-n-gone I think is the name)... then cut large unused parts out (to recycle later) and wash the stabilizer away :) I did that on the quilt I did with 3rd graders for the teacher... it was a "Charlotte's Web quilt that each child drew a square for, and I actually stitched "Charlottes Web" and "spider webs" into the quilt with this method... here is that quilt:
this was the sashing words, before the wash-away was washed out
