Simple quilting

Sometimes the simplest quilting pattern is the best. The pantograph I'm using on this autumn log cabin looks wonderful and it's so simple to quilt.

That is a beautiful pattern! It goes perfectly with the autumn colors.

Hope Chesty is feeling better. Such a cute journal card. Very clever of you to use batting to depict Chesty's fluffiness!

This panto came with my machine and it is one of my favorites! It's easy, quilts fast and looks great! Have you tried the one with Maple Leaves? Another good one from Dave Hudson.

Beautiful quilting. What is the update on Chesty? Hope he is doing much better!

I agree that a simple pattern is sometimes the best. As I found out in my blue and white quilt I just finished and, yes, I did use the quilt-as-you-go method. Is there any other way? LOL

The pattern is perfect for the quilt and I love the way the light is shining on it in your picture. Very effective!

It might seem like simple quilting to you, with a long arm to use.
But to me, it is very hard to emulate & it looks lovely!

The quilting is beautiful and I love the golden shades of the logcabin fabric.

Very nice pattern for those colors! Do you find that you can do those pantographs faster or just freehand stipple?
