ABSTRACT:
A guide for making non-linear patterns using a long arm quilting machine is used to form a variety of different non-linear stitching patterns in a quilt or other workpiece. The mechanism includes a crossmember which locks adjustably between the fixed tracks of a conventional quilting machine bed or table, and an arm adjustably secured to the crossmember. The arm is slotted to provide both radial and linear adjustment relative to the crossmember. The guide attachment end of the arm provides for the selective attachment of any of a series of different templates thereto. The templates include guide slots or passages therein, with a guide pin or stylus engaging the template slots or passages. The stylus is in turn affixed to the sewing machine, causing the machine to form a stitching pattern according to the specific pattern of the selected template as the stylus travels in the selected slot or passage.
