When I was at a quilt show the other weekend, I saw an absolutely stunning quilt. This photo doesn' tdo it justice - the quilting is amazing. And when someone told me that the quilter did not have a computerized machined, I was in awe.
The circles on this quilt are absolutely perfect.
I managed to chat with the quilter, and when I asked how she did it, she told me her machine came with a circle maker. I decided right then that I had to have one. Of course, my machine *doesn't* come with a circle maker, but I knew there had to be other options.
I found exactly what I wanted, at Loricles Quilting, and it arrived today! The Circle Lord is going to be so much fun to play with.
I put together a really quick quiltie, just so I could try this out. 4 quick squares, and now I have 4 circle medallions.
They are easier to see from the back. The tool makes perfect circles, spaces the medallions around a circle, and pretty much makes this whole thing fool-proof.
I think this is going to be the perfect tool for quilting a dresden plate quilt that is waiting a turn on the long arm..
