how do I search for quilting designs?
I have a quilt with ohio stars that I need to get some ideas for. This quilt is a charity quilt for Aid to Adoption for Special Needs Children. I have quilted baby ones for them but this is more of a twin. I LA quilt free motion and computer. I can do feathers and swirls and can use the Pro-Stitcher (older model HQ-16) but a couple of the stars have an applique in the center so I think I would just like to free motion. I am good with doing the borders with feathers and leaves around the borders that are around the stars. There are twenty, but what do I do on the stars that is not too time consuming. I thought that I would like to see the quilting by the others on this board and I bookmark so much but trying to find the pictures of the beautiful quilting I have seen when I go to the "pictures" means going through so many that are not just of quilting and then I spend hours and hours looking. So if you know of some that you can share or ideas of what to quilt on/around the stars please do.

they're designed for DSM but most could be done on a LA, I think.
http://freemotionproject.com Natalia Bonner also has bunches of LA designs on YouTube based on her books. |
If you can view youtube, Angela Walters has several nice videos of FMQ designs. I also love the Tuesday Tutorials done by Lori Kennedy at www.theinboxjaunt.com

I use to go to a lot of quilt shows and Shop Hops and the first thing I would search for are their selection of quilting stencils.

Go to google, and type in 'ohio star quilt', then click the images hot spot at the top of the page.
