Wow, that is going to be beautiful. What meticulous and tedious work! I'm sure well worth the time when your quilt is all finished.

Are you hand quilting this? It's going to be a knockout!

It’s turning out beautifully. I like the layout you chose.

I keep telling myself to mark my quilts, but since I love FM so much I'll never take the time to mark such a great pattern like yours. Can't wait to see the finished quilt!

I need to take a lesson from you about marking my design on my quilt. One is sitting on my table right now and I am trying to decide how to quilt it. I keep trying different things but.... I think I will try it!

SusieQOH 04-25-2019 03:43 AM

That's going to be fabulous!!

So are you using a domestic machine or longarm? Inquiring minds want to know!!

luvstoquilt 04-25-2019 04:17 AM

Can’t wait to see it finished. It is a beauty already!

Friday1961 04-25-2019 04:40 AM

Beautiful top, and the quilting is going to enhance it perfectly!

no clue! Any suggestions? i have lots of variegated threads! or could do just white in the background, and matching colours in the squares

yellowwroses 04-25-2019 05:18 AM

Beautiful what type of marker do you use?

Oofta 04-25-2019 08:00 AM

Can't wait to see it finished. I do have 3 questions. #1 What do you use to mark your quilts? #2 Do you have a stitch regulator on your domestic machine #3 what method do you use to sandwich your quilt in preparation for the wrestling match?

Thanks all for the comments!

I use crayola markers for kids - the washable kind. The markings have come off no matter what I do with them! I have ironed over them, starched over them, ironed again ... etc. I've never had any issues. Also, if you make a mistake on a section, you can just spritz it with water from a water bottle and the markings come off, and you don't have to start all over again!

I don't know if I have stitch regulator LOL I have the brother dreamweaver 6200 and I do all my FMQ on that.

I use spray baste to hold it all together. I flat out do not have the patience to pin everything into place. And the best part about spray baste - it lasts for months (or until you wash it out). I have spray basted quilts and they have sat for 3-4 months before I got around to quilting it and they were still fine.

Also, with the spray baste, I can roll the quilt up, fold it, scrunch it and I have no problems at all!

Sharon5012 04-25-2019 04:55 PM

Looks super. Thanks so much for the technique info!

eparys 04-26-2019 03:03 AM

That will look fantastic!! Can not wait to see it complete!

Thanks so much for the information. I'm on my way to Wally World to get some crayola markers for kids!!!!
I have used spray baste on small projects and love it. Just haven't had the courage to try it on a larger quilt.
I guess that's my next challenge.
