I hand quilt on a lap hoop & usually just use masking tape to get perfect straight lines but I was wondering if this quilt needed some curves in it. Would you quilt a clam shell or other design or stick to the cross hatch method?

i wouldn't put the curves in your center section as it would mess up your pretty stripe-y design. you might put them in the solid sections, though, if you want to soften the quilt with curves.

How about baptist fans...

I would just do 1/4 inch or 1/2 inch from each seam. Will be very pretty on the back. Love your colors!

OH MY - that's neat looking. Very interesting. I don't know how to quilt it...I'm a newbie. But I quess you will get plenty of suggestions from experienced people. Hope to see the end result.

Im not sure how I would quilt this, but I just love this quilt!

That would get my vote, too. Those fans are so pretty on different styles of quilt - traditional, plain, intricately pieced, repro fabrics, batiks, solids - and they add some beautiful curve to pointy squares. :)

I tend to quilt according to how busy the design is, if it wont show up, just outline quilt it.

Beautiful quilt. I wouldn't put curves on it. Love the strong angular design.

Whatever you decide on, I'm sure it'll look fabulous. It's a marvelous top.
