Prettip, its not a pantograph but a digital design. I combined the corner designs with the top row design. The sides I chunked as I went down the quilt. For the SpiderWeb as I knew I'd have to go thru all those seams in the center, I found a design that would basically go around it instead of thru it. Only problem there was it made the center bunch up. Back to the drawing board on that idea. Also I have robotics as my hands tremor too much to do free motion but there is still a lot you have to do in preparing these designs to fit your quilt.
Thanks for the nice comments.

Quilter 65, what tool are you talking about that you need for the Spiderweb? I didn't use anything for mine. I started out with a foundation piece and just sewed strips to it. I marked the foundation piece where to put the 1st strip on each side though. I got both of these patterns from Craftsy 2012 BOM.

they both look great. I would love to have quilting that looked that good - I am still fighting trying to quilt on my DSM. I can't even do stitch in the ditch straight LOL

Those are really lovely quilts. We make those spider web ones too at our group, for charity, I think they're great to use up strips. It's on my to-do list for the very near future for a friend of mine, so thanks for the advice about the larger strips on either end. Also it's nice to see one made with the white criss-cross, we've been making them in black, dark-blue or dark-brown, so to see them in white, gives you more ideas what it looks like The second quilt is so lovely too!!! Thanks for sharing!!!
