Thanks everyone.
I was secretly hoping that the expert concensus would be that "just the horizontal lines are enough!" I know I was dreaming!!! I think it'll be a bunch of stop-start, backstitch, stop start, etc! Ah! what wouldn't I do for this project now, anyway, right!?! While it might be a little bit cumbersome under the machine, it will be an easier task than sneaking around and meeting with my husband's friends. He has more than I had imagined!!!! Thank you, everyone, for confirming that I do need to do vertical lines. |
Just for appearance sake, I would add the vertical quilt lines even if the batting didn't need them. I think it will give it a more finished look. That's the best looking signature quilt I've ever seen and I just adore your dog's siggy block!! :D Your DH is very much loved, that's for sure!

Thanks again, everyone.
Everyone's comments were very helpful. I ended up quilting by machine only in the "mortar" areas, and did all the horizontal rows and between each brick. I think it looks sharp! It's done done done! The birthday's on 10-10... so I'm 2 weeks ahead of schedule. |
It's awesome!!! Great job!! :D
