No patience for long projects? Wait, now didn't you have that gorgeous double Irish up a bit back? You can't fool me for one minute. Ha! Very nice.
:thumbup:

I think its great the quilt and the quilting WOW :D :D :D :D

You are soooooooo right. That Irish Chain did take a while. How cute, you remembered :oops:

First off, nicely done Jackie. I know the quilt in three days is an achievement. And yours came out much better'n mine.

A pantograph is a simple machine made of four 'sticks'. The four sticks are assembled at the ends so the whole thing is a movable parallelogram. You put a a stylus on one corner, anchor another corner to something solid, and a third corner drives another pencil, marker or in this case, a quilting machine.
Place a pattern you want to quilt under the stylus, thread the machine and simply trace the pattern with the stylus. The machine follows along, quilting the pattern on the paper.

Absolutely beautiful!!! You did a lovely job with the top and the quilting is absolutely gorgeous!!

Take a bow.

Close :-)
I have a lazar light to follow the pantograph on a long sheet of papter but I have to use eye/hand coordination, too. It's still easier than piecing a quilt top and a lot faster. I just pretend I'm driving and trying to stay on the road. It's fun!

Hi tech pantograph!

I stand corrected.

Nice work anyway. Ummmmm..... hemmmmm.... hawwwwww... what do you charge for a QS quilt?

Oh so pretty!!

Thank you, Belinda :-)

Oh my word, that's beautiful! ! !
I just love the colors and style.
Now that's a good pattern if you have a large print fabric you love! ! the quilting is so nice too. A perfect combination that complements each other.
Thanks for sharing.
