Question for experienced FMQ or long arm quilters
I have a chevron quilt that is made from rectangles and set on the diagonal, which resulted in bias edges. I've got it sandwiched/basted already, but it has a little fullness at the edges due to the bias, in spite of all the spray starch. It isn't terrible, but I am trying to avoid it pleating in the fuller areas. Am I better off with a looser quilting design or would something tighter be better? I am quilting this myself on my Viking Sapphire. My original plan was to do feathers or alternate patterns on the white and the printed fabrics. Now I am wondering if stippling would be better to ease in the fullness.
Anyone have a similar experience and have recommendations?
