A first quilt..


Carol completed her first quilt, a rail fence, with these beautiful neutral colours.    I used the pantograph called Love Doodle, and it turned out beautifully.     I think we have another quilter blooming in our community!  She did a fabulous job, and I hope she is motivated to continue with more projects.


The original Love Doodle Pantograph that I had was a little small and too dense for this quilt.  I went to my local Staples and enlarged the pantograph sample to adjust the size.  The enlarged pantograph worked much better with the blocks, and was a softer effect.  
edited to add:   I contacted Urban Elementz regarding resizing the FREE pantographs that I had downloaded and there is no issue to size the free pantos on that site.     



Next up, is this quilt that has been waiting for about 3 years for some quilting:
