    Default Inklingo

    Just wondering if anyone has used these and how do you like them? Also, where can I find them if I decide to try them? Thanks all!

    Sorry. I am not familiar with it. Try a google search.

    Many people have used it for the latest Bonnie Hunter (quiltville.com) mystery.

    Although I have no illusions of my quilts being around 100 years from now - I'd rather they be used today! - the ink on the fabric concerns me. The chemicals used in the ink over the long term?

    As a result, I personally prefer Triangulations, which like Inklingo, can be ordered online through the maker. Triangulations allows you to choose infinite HST, QST or Flying Geese, print them on paper and then piece through the paper.

    I feel like that doesn't explain well... You take fabric, right sides together and pin the printed paper to the back of it. Sew on dotted lines, but on solid lines. Of course, you then need to peel that paper away.

    I print on doodle paper from the $1 store; by reducing stitch size the paper tears away easily. I recently did over 300 HST's that are 1.5". All are perfect, no trimming down needed. The seams are exactly in the center so nest easily with their neighbors when making pinwheels.

    Also, if you want to try Inklingo, there are several free designs you can try on Linda's website.

    I have used Inklingo and most of the die, if not all, does wash out. I do not use it on white and I use the lightest color possible. Since I do like to hand piece some on the road I find having the stitching lines there helps immensely. JMO.
