Welcome to our course on custom quilting a Trip around the World quilt top!
In this course, you'll learn how to use the Intelliquilter system tools to design and stitch unique designs after auditioning and experimenting by first using an iPad to draw over the photo of the quilt. If you don't have an iPad, then simply print it out on paper a few times to play with some designs.
I have just finished this quilt that was given to me with the instructions 'Quilt as Desired - but I hope to enter this into a quilt competition with my guild'.
I felt this needed probably more than an edge to edge, but I also wanted to respect the traditional piecing design and not totally over quilt it.
What You'll Learn:
- How I use my Ipad to draw over the photo of the whole quilt to audition possible designs
- Using path pattern to create double pearled spines for the wreaths
- Using repeat to create the curved crosshatch
- Using Line pattern to build double continuous curves
- Modifying new motifs to fit the quilt top perfectly
- Creating a simple line pattern to highlight the lines that create the structure of the piecing
- Practical Exercises: Participate in guided exercises that reinforce theoretical knowledge, allowing you to practice and refine your skills in real-time.
- Creative Confidence: Build the confidence to experiment and customise designs to fit the quilt top and stitch them.
