does anyone do McTavishing
 

I just got this book about McTavishing it looks like it could really be fun. It will take a lot of practive.

I have used a few of the more open designs. They turn out very nice. I don't like my quilts to densely quilted so I tend to do them bigger. I do like the look of the pebbles in some areas.

I just recently got some micro handles, so I plan to try this on some pieces.

I planned to, but I bought the wrong book. Got the Curves one instead. Oops. I do want to try it on a wallhanging. Quilts with very heavy quilting aren't as warm as those with less and since family members want them warm, well, that pretty much decides it. Beautiful stuff though.

I have the book, but what with one thing or another, I haven't been able to unearth my sewing machines for months. I have a stack of practice tops to work on when I can.

I have just seen the You-tube videos about it. It is interesting. Good luck experimenting. It looks like there isn't really a right or wrong way to do it.

I've done it on a few quilts. Mine don't look as good as the ones in the book. :( Guess I need more practice.

I know mine will never look as good as the books but I agree it does not look like there is a wrong way and I would not do mine that dense either I think it takes away from the quilt. Thanks for all your input

I took a class on machine quilting and the instructor included a little mctavishing in it. I love it and honestly doubt I'll ever do it perfectly.

i usually don't quilt that densely, but i do love doing pebbles
