    Looking for Winning Hand/Card Tricks quilting ideas

    I'm getting ready to start my next project, queen size Winning Hand/Card Tricks Christmas quilt for my bed. I am looking for quilting ideas for it. I could do a pantograph, but I would really like to showcase the blocks. Show me your quilts, please.

    Here are the fabrics that I am using.

    Fabrics look great. You can always FMQ a 1/4 of an inch inside the pieced fabric with matching thread like a hand quilter would quilt this pattern.

    Have you searched pinterest for that specific quilt? I get a lot of quilting ideas there.

    Since you're working with that pattern, why not go with Diamonds, Spades, Clubs and Hearts designs also?

    Here is a card trick quilt I made for a couple down in Florida. As I have robotics on my machine I was able to custom quilt it simply. This is one of my earlier quilts so not as densely quilted or pieced as well. I think I've improved with age.......:-)

    Love this quilting. The swirls remind me of dollar signs sort of. Then looks like heart petals which would be a play off card suits. Great quilting. I personally like the not so dense quilting.
