This is my first real big stitch project. I hope to continue to learn. I need suggestions as to whether the center of this quilting is OK, when stitching in this manner. I'm quite open to suggestions, as well.

Thank you

Will try picture again to see about center stitching, please

I haven't tried big stitch quilting (I would love to on a project soon--I think it looks so pretty), so I can't help by answering your question. I just wanted to comment to tell you that your quilt is really beautiful!

grandma7

Thank you! I will probably not worry, as it's my quilt, right?

If you continue the big stitch through every patch in the pinwheel, the center section should result in forming an 8 pointed star and will be a delightful added element of interest.

It looks lovely, and the big stitches suit the quilt perfectly.

I think it looks beautiful. Your quilt, your way.

Oh, thanks to all of you. I'll post a pic when I have completed it.

That looks terrific!
Can you tell me what needles you're using? I started mine but the needles are totally wrong- tapestry. The only ones that would work with perle cotton. I ordered some and am waiting for the right ones.
I also love the first pic! Gorgeous fabrics and stitches.
