Quilting motif for a Bargello???
#1
I'm ready to quilt my Bargello wall hanging. I've attached the borders since I posted this picture last night in the Pictures section and I have my "sandwich" ready to quilt but I'm not sure what looks good on a Bargello design. I don't think I want a lot of quilting to take away from the design but I'm not sure and I'd appreciate suggestions. Thanks.

I would do a simple stitch that follows the flow of your design with maybe a diagonal line thru the blocks that would enhance the direction. On your borders you could use just about any design that you like or if there is a detail in one of the fabrics that you used that you want to repeat. I am sure it will look wonderful no matter what you choose.

OK, I finally found it. Here's where the quilt is located. I hope you enjoy this picture. I slept on it and thought about it and with the new features at the top I went to My Posts and just looked to where I had already commented on it and just copied the link here for you.
