I am ready to quilt a panel for quilt for kids. It's a disney panel of the cars. I need some advice now.....

should I outline the print or should I just free motion it? I will post a pic when it's done.

I have done both on the QFK. Quilt as the spirit moves you!

I would go with free motion goes much faster and is alot more fun!!!! Good luck!

For me it would depend on the panel. If outline would make some of the features stand out I would do that. You can still free motion the rest of the quilt.

free motion is fun! I look forward to seeing a picture of your quilt!

Whatever you choose would be my choice!!! Be aware though that if you are doing the Downy quilts that they ask you to quilt it pretty heavily so it lasts in the wash. Either way...we'd love to see it!

Being it is a Downy quilt I would free motion quilt it so it can be done heavily. I can't wait to see the quilt.
