I booked myself on the quilter before the Christmas break
but because of the high demand I only got on for this week. I created some
coloured cotton patches. The quilter was quite technical and hard to use however with
technical guidance I overcame this. I used the machine to create geometric it
was successful as on the bernina free hand quilting it’s almost impossible to
create a circle. There are a lot of measurement and maths when using the
quilting in terms of plotting out points etc as one inch out could ruin a
design. Some testers were successful and others weren’t due to composition and
shapes.

I created a small hand patched sample this week, It was time
consuming but in my opinion worth it. I plan to scale this u and then quilt
over on the machine.
