I'm hunting a leafy vine to be used on a border strip on the quilt I'm working on ("Meadow in Bloom", Joann Fabrics Quilt Block of the Month series) and apparently having trouble figuring out where to look (I'm a beginner). I am totally incapable of drawing anything even remotely recognizable, so drawing my own isn't an option.
Suggestions, links, etc., gratefully received. |

No, a hand-quilting motif.

Search for quilt stencils & you will probably come up with some.

Most quilt stores will have a stencil that you could use and they might be able to give you suggestions as to how you might do it. I don't recommend JoAnn's as I don't think they are helpful rather a good privately owned quilt shop where the clerks or owner's are skilled in quilting. Good Luck.

I have also used stencils found in the decorative arts dept.
Also have made my own. |
