I am new to this group. I live in Kansas ans have been quilting for years even own a long arm quilting machine. I bought myself a Bernina 830 with the embroidery unit so have gotten somewhat away from quilting while playing with my new toy. I just started trying to design a wall hanging for my daughter showing photos of her 4 children as well as her 4 grandchildren. It will be for her February birthday, am at a loss as to what to do other than patchwork around the photos. Suggestions would be welcomed. I plan to do the BOM but will be months behind I am sure. I also just started making the Latte Quilt which involves a lot of machine embroidery.
I do have a problem with the accuracy of my computer. The test square on the paper piecing of the BOM only measures 7/8 inch. I increased the picture 120% to achieve the 1 inch measure but it does not print the increase. I guess that means I have to use my brain and cut the blocks following the measurements given, sounds like fun.
