Help planning-new to FMQ
I finished the top for my square in a square temperature quilt. Brightly colored squares (6") and light tan background. I'm new at FMQ, so I don't have much experience. I'm sure there are guidelines concerning when to be dense and how it affects your view of the quilt. I've ordered 3 stencils that are 6". Really don't have a clue where or how to quilt this. Normally, I would SITD, but now I want a little bit fancy. I would like to see some similar quilts that are quilted, but I can't seem to choose the correct terms to search. I tried "tear drop"--is that correct for this type of assembly?--but I have been unable to see the actual quilting lines. This is the drawing that I followed for assembling. I'm thinking most of quilting in background area, using stencil, but not sure what to do with actual colored square. Thoughts or links?
And, yes, I'm completing 2 quilts at once. Started seahorse while waiting on more fabric for background to arrive.
