A Quilter's Eye 1 Single Camera Stitch System
THE ORIGINAL CAMERA QUILTING SYSTEM
For the FIRST time ever, see the BACK of your quilt AT THE SAME TIME you are quilting the top! A Quilter's Eye is a brand-new quilting camera that allows you to view a magnified portion of the BACK of your quilt simultaneously while you are quilting the top. Now you can make adjustments for tension problems, loops, uneven or skipped stitches, tucks or folds in the back fabric, even a “stray” thread BEFORE you have gone too far. Never again face HOURS of unpicking! A Quilter's Eye pantograph system is your path to error free quilting.
Whether you are freehand quilting, using a pantograph pattern or using a computerized program, our quilting camera will work for you! A quick glance at A Quilter's Eye 7" monitor will show the back of your quilt as you go, allowing you to make any adjustments necessary for perfectly quilted backs every time. A Quilter’s Eye can be attached to any quilting machine, hand or computer-guided, easily in mere minutes. Relax & enjoy peace of mind while quilting and never again roll your quilt up to find work that needs to be pulled out!
We are excited to announce the newest and most advanced edition of A Quilter’s Eye pantograph quilting - now available with a high definition quilting camera. The high definition view of the stitching on the back of the quilt is amazing! The lighted camera sets next to the bobbin eliminating the need for the inefficient and time-consuming use of a flashlight or a mirror to see the underside of your quilt. Let A Quilter's Eye keep an eye on your progress and do the extra work for you.
