Auntjo sorry about your mom. Like your block.
I still have Sylvia packaged up. I have one more UFO on the design wall which I want to finish the top 1st. So Sylvia will have to wait until January. See you then! Merry Christmas

My Sylvia quilt top has been finished over a year, but I can't decide how to quilt it. I want to hand quilt it. Maybe an all over pattern, but all those seams would make it hard to hand quilt. Since the blocks are so small, quilting the way it's made would be short seams that I don't think would look good--especially on the back. Cross hatching? Maybe, but that would mean hand quilting through all the seams on the tiny blocks. I would like to quilt something in the sashing, but they are 1 inch wide. My frame is empty and would love for this quilt top to be the next one completed.
Please can anyone help? Has anyone hand quilted Sylvia or any quilt top with small blocks?

I'm sorry Redtop, I can't help you there. I wanted to hand quilt mine too but decided not to because of the same reasons. All the seams make it too hard for me to hand quilt so I will do machine FMQing. I haven't decided yet on the design. Maybe an all over or each block different.....so it's still waiting in the cupboard.
Good luck with yours!
