JoAnnHoffman Posted October 11, 2009 Report Share Posted October 11, 2009 New Naked Spines Naked spines are just that, spines with no feathers or ferns. Even though I love my computerized system I still love the look of freehand feathers and ferns. I hate marking quilts and I love perfect spines so I made these for myself........but I thought I could share. Just plop them in and sew. There are twenty designs which include two corners and eighteen spines. The spines are continous repeatable designs. I especially like the two pearl wavy spines and the piano key wave. The cost for the set of 20 designs in all formats is $30.00, only a $1.50 each. You will use them over and over again on quilts. Even if you just want to practice your freehand feathers, they make life much easier. http://compuquilterdesigns.danemcoweb.com/shop/ I will be in Houston in the APQS, come by and say HI.

Joyce Posted October 11, 2009 Report Share Posted October 11, 2009 They are great spines and what you have done with them. How about something similiar for us non computer people. Pantos, pdf what ever. We would love to have some patterns also. Thanks Joyce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ffq-lar Posted October 11, 2009 Report Share Posted October 11, 2009 Wonderful! This is the type of application that will draw me to the CG systems eventually. It applies the "bones" of the design precisely and lets you embellish with your own brand of freehand--perfect! And I must say JoAnn, your brand of freehand is the best!!

yeoldeforest Posted October 12, 2009 Report Share Posted October 12, 2009 Love the idea! What a great basis for a class too! You could already have the spines stitched out for students and then just let them take off! I've been looking for ideas for an intermediate or advanced beginner's class and I think this would be great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DawnCavanaugh Posted October 12, 2009 Report Share Posted October 12, 2009 Wow, Joann! And to think how much work I put into those little pebble spines by hand:) When I first saw the title of your post my mind wandered to a unique photo I once saw of a cowboy posing with his backside to the camera:)!

smorris Posted October 18, 2009 Report Share Posted October 18, 2009 Hi everyone I just quilted No. 16 of the naked spines today, it quilts up terrific, which my freehand feathers were as good. I do so much with my Compuquilter that is was good to be able to combine freehand and CQ. Thanks Joann sue in australia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercedes Posted October 18, 2009 Report Share Posted October 18, 2009 Can we get these in a stencil or on paper for those of us with a non-computerized machine? I want them! Mercedes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
