AHuffman 179 Posted May 16, 2011 Report Share Posted May 16, 2011 I just pulled this quilt off the frame and thought I'd share it. I also exported a screenshot of the layout in IQ so you can see the motif's better. I love how IQ let's me layout an entire quilt so I can easily spot secondary pattern opportunities. In this case I laid out 3/4 of the quilt and then rotated it when I got to the bottom since it is symmetrical. I used the line pattern feature in the concentric circles on the center Dresden Plates which allowed me to match her piecing exactly. I just clicked in the corners and dragged out an arch! I should have done a quick video of this because I think it is so very cool! I have freehand curls and freehand meanders in the Dresden Plates along with freehand ribbons extending out from the roses in the setting triangles. The rest is IQ.

quilted charm 1 Posted May 16, 2011 Report Share Posted May 16, 2011 Very pretty. I can't decide if I want to get a computerized system, but your quilt sure makes it look attractive. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Merryjo2003 173 Posted May 16, 2011 Report Share Posted May 16, 2011 Wow! I sure wish I could get an IQ. It looks great! How fun to be able to manipulate the patterns and do what you want. Gotta get one someday. I love the quilt. Very soft and feminine. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Marg Layton 0 Posted May 16, 2011 Report Share Posted May 16, 2011 What a beautiful job you did on this quilt, Angela. Thank you for going into details as to how to accomplish this with IQ. Wish you could come up here and teach me a thing or two! (it would probably be much more than that lol) Marg Layton Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Robin 63 Posted May 16, 2011 Report Share Posted May 16, 2011 That's the quilt I took a picture of at my guild show last weekend. So it's called "Meet Me in Paris". I love that quilt and the quilting of course is awesome! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

quiltingbykc 38 Posted May 19, 2011 Report Share Posted May 19, 2011 Beautiful quilt! I haven't learned much with my IQ yet. I wish my second one would get her so one could do E2E and I could play on the other one. Patient I am not! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
