From Sketch to Stitch: Create Your Own Digital Pantographs

Description

Have you ever wondered how digital pantographs are created?

In this class, you’ll learn how to design and create your very own digital pantographs, transforming your sketches into continuous quilting patterns ready for use on computerised quilting systems.

We’ll explore the basics of pantograph design, from choosing motifs to creating seamless, repeatable patterns. You’ll learn how to use design software to turn your ideas into digital files and gain valuable tips for refining your designs.

With guided practice, you’ll create your own pantograph designs, receiving real-time feedback and support as you work. By the end of the class, you’ll know how to export your designs in the correct format and use them with popular quilting software and machines.
