I was asked to quilt this memory quilt... beautifully pieced by someone else. It is for the family of a great man and pastor who passed away two years ago. I have quilted the individual T shirt squares and I'm doing a squiggle in each of the "frames" around them. Last quilting of all will be the background-- the blue 'mosaic' fabric you see in the photo. I had thought to do piano keys-- plain lines 1" apart-- on the background, but to do that I need my walking foot to get straight lines. This is a queen size quilt, and with the walking foot I'd have to turn the quilt every time I change direction-- a big hassle. So I'd love to get some suggestions from you all as to what else I could do to quilt the backgrounds. Any suggestions? Thanks much, in advance.
