Quilting with Con-Tact® Paper Templates

Did you know that templates cut from Con-Tact® adhesive shelf paper are repositionable? And white Con-Tact® is sheer enough for tracing. With a light source behind, trace the quilting motif onto the shelf-paper side and cut out on the line. If you wish to have a reverse version of the motif, trace it on the side with the peel-off backing.

Remove the backing, place the template on the quilt and, with the free-motion technique, stitch around the motif, finishing with the needle down to stabilize the quilt. Reposition the template and quilt a connecting line to it. Complete the quilting lines with lock stitches.

Con-Tact® templates are great for decide-as-you-go casual quilting placement. Work from the center out, quilting motifs as far apart as your batting allows.

NEW WEB SITE
Not happy at all with new web site thought it was going to be great but can't find what I want and no pictures appear
Pictures
There may be errors in the text, but even worst no pictures appeared, onlly empty boxes.
Site has too many errors
Too many broken links; too many times text is on top of (or worse still, under) images. Disappointingly poor site. Though I doubt this comment here will do any good.
