Beachside Quilter Posted May 27, 2014 Report Share Posted May 27, 2014 Used my new Egyptian Eye Circle Lord boards to quilt these Veteran quilts our guild made using strips we cut. The Egyptian Eye sews out SOOO quickly, I quilted all six quilts in 1-½ days. I'm renaming this board "Eagle Eye". Thanks, Michael, for making such a great design! https://www.flickr.com/photos/95121367@N02/sets/72157644861998991/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K. Szymaszek Posted May 27, 2014 Report Share Posted May 27, 2014 Wow, they look great. That sounds like record time. I'm sure it would probably take me more than twice as long. K Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, Sheri! You and Michael really came up with a great design! Officially my new Favorite board, (sorry Swirls)! I was stitching back and forth so quickly my friend who was here watching thought I was computerized! Nope, all hand-guided Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMALKB Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 Great pattern for the quilting.........gives movement without distracting from the quilt top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RitaR Posted May 29, 2014 Report Share Posted May 29, 2014 I have several UFO quilt tops and I'm sure this Eagle Eye pattern will look great on a few of them. Thanks for the idea. The design is easy to stitch out freehand, I plan to mark the eyes, and work around them. Rita Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shahann Posted May 29, 2014 Report Share Posted May 29, 2014 Thanks for posting! Swirls is my favorite right now, but Egyptian Eye is being shipped as I type. I do a LOT of strip quilts. I can't wait to do one and show it off to my quilt guild! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do a LOT of strip quilts. I can't wait to do one and show it off to my quilt guild! This design is perfect for the strip quilts as some lines are closer, and along with the gentle curve every strip is quilted. The veteran tops I quilted were "creatively pieced" and the Egyptian Eye boards helped me nail them down so they look perfect!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheri Butler Posted May 30, 2014 Report Share Posted May 30, 2014 It does enable you to help stabilize those not so flat spots, huh Vickie!!! I was thinking the same thing when I did that old quilt. We all know how those oldies can be! I have another design that i'm having Michael look at. If all goes well, should also quilt out pretty dang fast! And will be awesome on modern quilts too!!
