Hi, I'm a BigStitch quilter, too. Right now I'm working on a 6" one patch. I'm doing an
allover pattern. The piece measures about 40" x 60".

I'm using very large-scale, double line fans. I made a 20 inch "compass"
out of template plastic, with holes every inch. I mark with Clover Chacopel
chalk pencils. I mark one set of double lines, then leave a couple of inches
before the next set of arcs.

So my fan arcs can have a radius of 20", and I quilt each arc with double lines. On the
long sides, I start marking off the in the middle so it's a 180 degree fan.

On this quilt I'm using a dark blue DMC pearl cotton and a #24 chenille from Primitive

Gatherings.

May all our stitches be big!

Jo

ps I am dreadful at electronic devices, but if you read the comments
below Jo Glover's Gallery of Quilts ( which is also pretty dreadful), my
email address is there. Please excuse me if I lose the thread on this forum.
