Whether quilting on a domestic machine or a longarm machine I like to mark reference lines on my quilts.
Reference lines give me a much better result. If I am using rotating templates, reference lines will give much more accurate spacing.
On a domestic machine the quilt is not taught as on a longarm machine and there is movement of the quilt sandwich which can make it difficult to use the rotating lines on the templates. So I mark in the reference lines.
I like using our Cross Hair Ruler to locate the centre and mark 4, 8, 16 and 32 lines if required
Leonie talks about her book. "Designing with the Crosshair Ruler", an invaluable guide to creating quilting designs with reference lines.
