Handquilting pattern?
1 Attachment(s)
Hi! I just finished this quilt top for a sweet baby girl. I usually hand quilt diagonal lines to form Xs in the squares. Thought I would do something different this time. Any ideas for something easy and pleasing to the eye? Thanks so much!

Cute quilt. You could do a heart shape or Xs and Os for hugs and kisses.

How about the outline of a kitten or puppy? You could find kids coloring pages online and make them whatever size that you like, and just put them all over the top.

Cute top! I might do my favourite machine quilting pattern for squares, continuous Orange peel. It can be done without stopping which is why I like it for machine quilting but it would also be a benefit in hand quilting. When finished, the squares look like you quilted circles across the top.

how about feather wreaths? you can do them over several blocks

I'd be tempted to quilt a diamond in each square, drawing lines from the middle of each side of the square - kinda like a square in a square... I love rope patterns for borders.
|
I'm just anxious to see when finished.

Pretty quilt! I love quilting the paisley, or teardrop shape.
|
Do you know the baby's name? If so, how about the letters of the names in the squares and maybe hearts , diamonds etc. in the other squares.
