On a Slant...

Here's one for PantoVision users...





I loaded this pattern the other day, not being too attentive, considering the program, to my knowledge does not provide a way to 'square' the pattern to the grid, and assuming that squaring was automatic. Anyway as you can tell one side is lower than the other and it remained so throughout the quilting process. The first picture is Rows 1&2 while the second is Rows 9&10. There is always some movement of the pattern to the grid because of adjustments made during the process from quilting and advancing, but for it to be 'slanting' well that was a curve ball...it translated to the quilt...fortunately able to make some adjustments when the excess was trimmed and the quilt squared. Always make them a shade larger than you want the finished product to be. Well at least we do. Quilt till you wilt.
