Thank you for the excellent and understandable instructions! I hope you make more videos. I purchased a Cutie a few months ago and was wondering if I could do this. Love your quilt too! ❤️❤️❤️
Hi Amanda! Great tutorial! I am waiting for my Cutie frame to come in and my stitch regulator.I will be putting my Baby Lock Jazz II on the frame. My question is how can you determine if the pantograph is going to end perfectly at the end of the quilt ?( last row of stitching)What if you only have space for the top half of the pantograph?
I just stitch the portion of the pantograph that is on the quilt. I will then travel on the extra fabric used to clamp on the quilt to get to the next part of the pantograph that's on my quilt top. I hope that makes sense.
The split screen was a little hard to watch for me.I see you are stitching vertically not horizontally.So I guess if another full design won’t fit in your last could you should just have extra batting so the last bit can be stitched.I have reworded it so maybe you can understand me better.I am a beginner.
@@susiebarton9174 I hope so too. I was trying to show what the machine was doing as well as what was happening on the quilt top itself. Next time I do a pantograph I'll try to record a video that shows the last row. Let me know if you have any other questions when you try it.
I have my eye on the Cutie frame , but I plan on starting with my home machine. Did you start in the center of the quilt so the Pantagraph would be center? How did you make sure your quilt was straight? Thanks. You did a great a job.
I did my first quilt using the Juki TL2000qi. It worked well but I really wanted more than 5" of quiltable space. I started in the upper top left corner of my quilt. I used reference lines in my quilt and matched those up with the bars of the cutie frame. When I placed my Cutie frame on the table I made sure it was parallel with the table and then made sure my pantograph was parallel to the table too. This ensured as best I could that it would be straight. I did have a couple instances where I had to rehoop the quilt because it wasn't quite straight. But I was able to easily tell when I did the reference point check to the previous row. Let me know if that answers your question or if you have anymore!
@@amanda_badger Thank you. I have a Janome with an 11 inch throat space, so I'm going to start with that and maybe one day I can get a 19 inch. Did you spray base your sandwich first?
@@debrablue6115 I still pin baste. I've never been a big spray baster. I know there are some in the Cuties group on Facebook that don't baste at all. I haven't gotten that comfortable yet :)
My machine has an 18" throat space. I would say about 15" of that is quiltable on the frame. This design is about 9" high. I haven't tried it but I'm sure there would be a way to apply these principles to a design larger than your throat space.
These were two separate designs from www.urbanelementz.com/ that I adjusted and put together using Silhouette Studio. They have a really good selection of printable pantographs.
I have the Juki Miyabi 350. It has an 18" throat space. I did need to purchase a different base for it to fit on the cutie. The quilting steps should work for any machine you would just want your pantograph to fit in the throat of the machine you are using.
Hi I just saw a project bag you did for The Real Housewives of Cross Stitch and I’ve tried to email you but apparently I haven’t gotten the correct email address.. I sure am interested in one. Hopefully you can reach out to me..
I do have a tendency to speak fast. I had a lot of learnings after doing this video. You can always change the playback speed of the video to slow it down and see if that helps. Please let me know if there are any specific questions you have that maybe I can elaborate more on for you.
Never heard of the Cutie frame. Looks real neat and easy to use by your tutoring. Stay safe. Walk in Peace.
Thank you! There is a Cutie Quilters group on Facebook if you are interested. It really is a great frame if you are tight on space.
Thank you for the excellent instructions!! Will be looking for more of your videos.

Thank you! I do hope to do some more videos soon!
I’m thinking about purchasing the Cutie frame. Your tutoring was very good. Hope to see more with your Cutie. Love the Halloween quilt.
Thank you. I'm hoping to get some more videos out soon.
great video I have to watch it over and over you go so fast ha ha . ;)
I was trying to go slow but was really hard not to go at normal speed. I will have to work on that for my next videos :)
@@amanda_badger For your next video, try not posting important videos and forcing your audience to endure them.
@@wendyo9030 I'm not sure I understand. Are you saying to make the video shorter? Or to change the content?
Nice!

Sorry I got totally confused,you are stitching horizontally.Hopefully I’ll figure it out when I get to try it.

Great video! Does your design fit the throat space of your long arm?

Who makes the pantograph?
