I am currently experimenting with turning a picture into a quilt, I was able to draw out what I wanted, tested the feasibility of sewing the lines which all worked out great (I mean they are pieces with gentle curving so didn't expect much of a problem) but the sort of issue is now making the patterns for the pieces. I'm stuck in that trace each piece then take a hem guide, since I can set the mark at 1/4" going back and making my tick marks like I'm doing a connect the dots and then going over all those to get my pattern piece.... 2 days later and I'm still working on finishing the last 3 pattern pieces I need on a 68" x 18" picture. (Granted with lots of interruptions and breaks but still well over 6 hours of tracing for something that might take 2 hours of sewing lol)
Does anyone know if they make a dual tip pen or marker that would have a 1/4" spacing? Or maybe 1/8" wide markers i could tape together lol, or would they need to be 1/4"?? Ugh getting confused now and tired of marking and seeing dots, just feels like there is an easier way to do this and I'm just missing it somehow.
