Farm Girl Vintage ready to be quilted. Suggestions?
I just finished my Farm Girl Vintage quilt top and it is on the longarm waiting to be finished later today. Any suggestions on a pattern that would not distract from the blocks? I have pantographs and am confident with some free motion like meandering, butterflies, swirls, etc. Thank you for any suggestions.

Any pictures???

Not much help till I see pictures .

Echo would work to bring the image to the forefront on many of the blocks with the fillers in the main part of the background.

I am sorry - the photo will not upload. Good idea, RedGarnet222!

Are you talking about Lori Holt's pattern? If yes, it's a pretty sampler quilt. My thought is a diagonal cross hatch for the quilting since the top has so much going on.
|
A good thought also. Time to face the music and get it started! Thanks everyone!

I will be watching this since I am near finishing this quilt top. Starting to think about how I might quilt it. I think the one on display at the LQS had a simple, open swirl. It didn't detract from the look of the piecing at all, very subtle. The piecing and fabrics are just so cute and tiny. I will be doing FMQ on my domestic machine so will probably try something like the open swirl, a little harder to accomplish on a small machine than a long arm. Hope you let us know what you decide.

YEAH! Finally uploaded! I am going to wait until tomorrow to quilt as it is getting dark outside and the natural daylight helps me. |
Beautiful colors...I would definitely stick with something simple since so not to take away from you wonderful blocks.
