My mom has a older mid-arm quilting machine and is having a hard time doing smooth designs on her quilts. I'm just wondering if anyone has used groovy boards? did they work? or should I just get her some pantographs? Is there a good place to get them? perfered design? TIA

If she is having trouble with smoothness then groovy boards or something similar is the way to go. Keeps us steady and the designs look great when finished. My last panto looked like garbage, I couldn't follow the lines at all. I should have picked an easier one but thought my skills were good enough...not! I have a wish list for some of the sewboards from bayside quilting.

I don't have groovy boards, but I have Circle Lord boards. I love them! I have done one panto and it went smoothly, but be careful of the backtracking ones. Even the experts have a hard time backtracking.
