    Default International machine stitching trends

    As a followup to a post last week about Kantha stitching, here are the latest remarks about international stitching trends:
    Dense Quilt Stitching - unique quilting designs
    Trapunto (stuffed/raised areas)
    Contrasting Thread Color - a Zentangle technique

    You can read about it here, with 4 closeups of gorgeous quilts:

    Guess I'm going to up the ante with more stitching on my quilts!

    Interesting to see the trends going forward, but I can only look and admire - way beyond my skill set.
    Thanks for sharing this, Jan

    I can't click on anything. Would like to.
    P.S. When my post came up here the link was blue, so I looked there. I liked what I saw. Now it turned black again and doesn't work anymore.

    Mavita, that's so weird! But, I'm glad you found it anyway. Maybe others will have to copy and paste, it's worth it!

    I got the pic of 4 pics of quilts and the small blurb along with an invite to attend her lecture in Ohio in October....sorry, busy that day....
    interesting though on how the focus is more on the quilting, not the fabric/piecing...adds a whole new dimension to the process......

    Wow beautiful. I sure wish I could do that. Just got a longarm. I don't know how to use it yet. Someone was giving away for free. I know, in theory, how to use it. I have no idea how to load a quilt. I do have some things to play with once I get started. Maybe in my next lifetime I will learn to do things like that.
    Thanks for posting.

    Thanks for sharing Jan. Sure nice to look at ..... just not my cup of tea. It's a good thing we all have choices whether to or not to follow a trend.
