Danny Amazonas seems to do a zig zag around all his pieces, but Susan Carlson does free motion and uses the flow of the piece itself to determine where the quilting is going to go. I'm waiting for her book before I do anything. I did buy some invisible thread and I'm going to try Danny Amazonas' technique and see if I can do it.

I've done the zig zag around the edges with invisible thread on a collage coat I made. I fused the pieces down then zig zagged around them. The coat has been worn for several years and the edges haven't frayed so for a wall hanging, you wouldn't have a problem
