    I just posted my big picture on the other ruler work post. I wish I had it at home so I could take some close-up pictures. Here are a couple I've done on my home machine. Not sure what order they'll come up, but the star flower is great for the center of a Dresden plate. On the scallops, I started with lines sewn with my walking foot. Then used an arc ruler to make the scallops. The walking foot lines help me place the arc so it gets taller. It's great to combine ruler work with free-motion. The small scallop makes a pretty border. Then I go back and free-motion "L's and E's," over the scallops. The bicycle stitching is hard to see, but I used the scallop with L's and E's in the smallest border. I also used a big arc (my spiral Westalee ruler with a line drawn across it) for the sun outlines in each corner. Then a straight edge ruler for the Delectable Mountains. The wave ruler made the rays that go across the bicycle center, then I filled those with free-motion.

    Wow, quiltedsunshine...your ruler work is fabulous. I have purchased rulers for my DSM but need to watch a couple of YouTube videos as suggested to help wrap my head around them.

    [ATTACH=CONFIG]591660[/ATTACH]This was done entirely with straight ruler work. I mostly use rulers on my quilts.

    I'm jealous. :-). Nicely done!! I'm trying to learn and have an appreciation for how evenly spaced your work it.

    Gorgeous! They are all beautiful. Thanks for all of the links to sites, but it is your own work I was hoping to see.

    *MY* New Placemats are done!

    Here is a link to placemats I quilted on my DSM using a ruler. Just about every quilt I've quilted and posted here have used rulers on either my Sitdown Sweet 16 or my long arm, but smaller projects I've done on my DSM with a ruler foot and a ruler.
