I finally have the design marked for this wholecloth. For the background, would you use a stipple pattern or 1/2'' grid? It will be hand quilted.

I would use a grid.
|
My advice would be to quilt the feathers first and then see if it needs any filling in with any background stitching.
|
It's still spray basted to my original pattern and would be so much easier to mark now. I already know I need background stitching to get the effect I envision, just not sure which I should use. I want the feathers to stand out against the background.
|
I think a straight line grid would look best to contrast with the curves of the feathers. Would love to see the finished quilt!!!

I agree with others that the straight line grid would contrast best with the feathers. I think stippling would be to confusing next to the feathers.
|
wow, that's awesome. i love pebbles, but they are easier by machine. a grid might be nice by hand.
|
I vote for a grid. Any busyness I think would detract from the lovely pattern.

As dense as this quilting is, why would you want any other quilting to hide the feather designs? |
