WOW, great work. I agree with the others, do echo then rays on the edges.. you must post picture when finished quilting it.. WOW
|
Thank you! I found the pattern in the January 1993 issue of Better Homes & Gardens magazine and have been saving it all these years. I have also found reference to it on the internet at the International Quilt Study Center & Museum.

Probably four of the most stunning applique blocks I've ever seen!!!!

(But honestly, I'm tempted to use something sparkly too!)

Wow. So striking. I am in the process of collecting fabric in blue and whites to make a snowflake quilt. I hope it turns out as striking!

How beautiful, while I can't offer any advice on how to quilt them I certainly understand Why you want the best to highlight their beauty. I think I would pm Chrisma (I hope that's correct), everything I've seen of her has been magnificent.

How abour echo quilting each snowflake, then a snowflake design in the negative space created when 4 blocks are sewn together? They are gorgeous....

Maybe echo? I'm not qualified. Photos, please and thank you when you're finished.

How about a red metallic?? Or even a red with a lot of sheen to it (poly or rayon).
