Yellow Brick Road Quilt
I would like to hand quilt a Yellow Brick Road quilt since I am going to have of time to do what I want. Any suggestions on how to quilt it would be appreciated. Thank you, CaroleLee

I agree with Wesing that if there is a theme to your fabrics then you could find a quilting pattern to go along with that. For instance, Christmas you could quilt trees or packages, Halloween could have quilting of ghosts, words like Boo and so on. I had made a baby quilt for my granddaughter and my long arm quilter quilted it with words like "Hugs and Kisses" across the quilt. I also like quilting running diagonal across the quilt. Good luck in whatever you decide and I am sure it will be very pretty.
I have 2 of the same pattern "yellow brick road" and still have not figured out how to put the pieces together. I have wanted to make this for a long time and get really frustrated when I start trying to figure out how the pieces go together. Did you have any trouble figuring out the pattern?

My wife and I have made several YBR quilts and my main error was in making the first cut (had the fabric oriented the wrong way). What step are you on that is causing you trouble?

Have you decided on a quilting pattern?
