Dave & DeLoa Jones 0 Report post Posted August 31, 2009 When I first started to machine quilt I tried to quilt a pantograph design into a border. I quilted the top border of the quilt, then the middle, and then the bottom border. I unpinned and turned the quilt to stitch the side borders. I positioned the pantograph design and stitched. With my inexperience, all the corners were off. The design was not matching and all the fabric was bunched in the corners. I promptly took all the stitching out and vowed it would never happen again ..... In this book, I want to warn you of pitfalls and give hints on how to make your border designs fabulous. to order it follow the link below http://www.deloasquiltshop.com/deloasonlinestore/borderpatrol.html http://www.deloasquiltshop.com/images/560_Border_Patrol_Book.jpg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Even though she is very experienced, she speaks at my level and makes me feel I can do it!! This book is full of good advice and ideas.
