Anne from Guam Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 I have been looking around for a preprinted wholecloth top. I haven't tried one of these yet. It seems there are only a couple different designs available. Do you follow the design exactly or change the elements that you don't like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrandmaLKB Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 I've wondered about those too Anne. Keepsake Quilting has a couple, but the pictures in the book and on the website aren't very clear. I'd like to see on up close and personal.

delld Posted March 22, 2013 Report Share Posted March 22, 2013 I did one by hand years ago. When it was judged, suggested MORE quilting! So I could do whatever I wanted. It's your quilt. LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zora Posted March 22, 2013 Report Share Posted March 22, 2013 I'm afraid the ones from Keepsake are intended for hand quilting, and have only the dots printed on them. I don't know that for sure, but those are the ones I've seen the most. I guess you could connect the dots with blue water erase marker before loading. I have tried the small ones from some of the panto websites (I don't remember where, now.) One I received was very nice quality fabric, one...not so much..same website. I would rather buy my own fabric, and one of the pattern packs available and mark my own...all things considered. Its more work and maybe more $$ up front, but if you are going to do all that work, you don't want cheap fabric, IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delld Posted March 22, 2013 Report Share Posted March 22, 2013 Urban Elements, Patricia Ritter, makes a design each month using the monthly club designs to make a whole clothe. Here is their site http://www.urbanelementz.com/ Check it out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anniquilter Posted March 22, 2013 Report Share Posted March 22, 2013 Try Sue Schmeiden at www.quiltingconnections.com (I think that's right). She also sells the zipper sets but I've seen several different whole cloth kits and designs on her booth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandra Darlington Posted March 22, 2013 Report Share Posted March 22, 2013 I bought one from Sue Schmeiden a few years ago at one of the shows. Humm....now, where did I stash it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Busy Quilting Posted March 22, 2013 Report Share Posted March 22, 2013 I think Christian Lane also has some Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonnie H Posted March 30, 2013 Report Share Posted March 30, 2013 I'm looking thru The Stencil Company's catalog from a couple of years back and see a couple of pages of whole cloth preprinted panels. Some are a big as 90x108 inches. Designed by Holice Turnbow for Benartex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JudithWashburnQuiltStudo Posted March 30, 2013 Report Share Posted March 30, 2013 The Stencil Company web site is the http://quiltingstencils.com/preprintedwholecloth.aspx. and much more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pumpkinpatchquilter Posted March 30, 2013 Report Share Posted March 30, 2013 I think Golden Threads has some on their web site - have you considered Dover books? It might be more work than you want to get into...but Cindy Needham uses them and alters different designs to suit her purposes. I imagine you could probably scan them and print them off with iron transfer ink. Of course it'd be much easier to buy a wholecloth design, but I'm a DIY'er kind of gal and want to have full control over everything I do!!!

quiltlover03 Posted March 30, 2013 Report Share Posted March 30, 2013 I have 3 queen size designs available for sale. One is Welsh Beauty in white, another is Garden Bouquet in natural, and the other is Feathered Pineapple in white. All come with the pre printed top and the binding. I have sold many of these both the kits and the completed Quilt. I am working on one right now that is going to Australia and has the couple initials in the centre and the wedding date. I use the main design as a guideline but do my own fillers. The Quilt tops measure 88" x 106" before washing. If interested in any design, contact me.

quiltlover03 Posted March 30, 2013 Report Share Posted March 30, 2013 Corey I tried to message you but it says "you are not set up to receive messages....Send me an e-mail and I'll send you a link to my store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corey Posted March 30, 2013 Report Share Posted March 30, 2013 Monika, I've been receiving messages, maybe I should add you as friend or add me to your list. My email is not showing and so as yours, don't know why. I went to your store, I think that soft beige/ natural of welsh beauty is good for me. I will definitely add more patterns to the wholecloth, IQ will help me, I need some pointers from you, if you don't mind about stitching sequences. corey.starkey@att.net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quiltlover03 Posted March 30, 2013 Report Share Posted March 30, 2013 Corey, I just answered you on your e-mail. The Welsh Beauty is white only, the Garden Bouquet is natural. You can email me at modenkra@gmail.com for more information. Stitching sdequence is whatever you want it to be. I start at the top and work my way down........I draw out on the example what I am doing so everything matches when i come to the bottom....easy as pie??? i cant bake pie to save my life, but love quilting these and doing my own thing.

apylinski Posted March 30, 2013 Report Share Posted March 30, 2013 Monika - I can't get to your website??? It just is a blank page. Is it because I'm on an iPad? It lets me go to your blog but nothing else. What am I doing wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
