Thread: Need Advice!!!!

I have the fly fishing panel I'm making for my BIL and I am thinking about hand quilting around some of the items in the picture never haver done this before which way is better? Knot or no knot?

No knot
Love the quilt

You make a quilter's knot and pop it into the batting when you first start. I think that's what you are asking. You can probably find out how to do a quilter's knot by searching. Not sure if I can explain it without visuals.

I agree. The quilt will look terrific!!

I do quilt around the designs a lot for baby quilts so I can take the project along with me. I always bury the not. I just wouldn't want it the come unraveled.

Nice quilt.

Nice quilt I've always knotted. Wouldn't it come undone?

Knot and pull into the batting. Neat quilt.

Great quilt. Love the colors.

I'm starting to hand quilt around some of the designs and I have a question about it. When you stitch around the object are the stitches suppose to show on the back like the front? Or just on the front?
