There's been a quilt on the frame for almost 2 weeks now . . . it's my first time with a pantograph and I don't think that I enlarged the pattern enough! The original panto arrived a few weeks ago and it's 4 inches in height. I began to stitch it out at that size, and it is way too small and intricate, so I ripped it all out and went to Staples to have it blown up - well, I went to 6 1/2 inches and I thought it was fine until I was a few rows into the quilt! It is taking me 1 bobbin and 30 minutes to stitch from left to right. At this rate, I will be done in April! I am on a mission now, as I finished the Stash Project top and I want to load that one so I can get it quilted for Emma's bed!

That is looking really good. I think I need to learn to quilt.....
Always nice to know other's are suffering through growing pains with me. yours is looking good.
Now that kind of quilting machine is what I need. I have been spending a fortune having my quilts quilted. I know I could handle an all over design!
Excellent quilt design, good idea to start a quilt business here in Indonesia.
That is pretty fabric - a pretty quilt - and a great idea to enlarge the quilt design.
