APQS Education Director Dawn Cavanaugh shows you how easily you can get a quilt done by stitching a pantograph design with your APQS longarm quilting machine.
This is June 2, 2018, can you do a video using the pantograph on domestic sewing machine. Thanks for this video but it doesn't help me "maybe others" when quilting with a domestic sewing machine.
Well, pantographs are basically for longarms only as far as I know. If you want to do it on domestic machines you will need to mark the pattern on the quilt top and use free motion to do it
Hi, Can you tell me what quilting design you are using? It looks pretty easy and I would like to try it. BTW thank you for posting this great video. Thanks again, LJ
Dawn, thanks for the great video. I have tried to find similar simple pantographs, but all I find are very detailed (busy) and not suitable for a beginner. Nor have I been able to find the plastic overlay you are using. Would you be so kind as to direct me to a source for both.
Steve Cartee I purchased the plastic overlay at Wal-Mart in the Fabric section. It is on rolls and sometimes used as table cloth/furniture protectors. They sell it by the yard and it is very inexpensive. I believe it comes in 48" wide and you can cut it very easily with scissors. My Wal-Mart stocks different thicknesses. Hope this helps.
Best instructions I have seen on doing pantographs. Thanks.
