    Default A couple of pineapple quilts

    This two quilts came from CA.

    On the first one the client choose a uniform meandering pantograph. After receiving the quilt we suggested a paisley border to match the paisley pattern in the border fabric with the meandering in the field of the quilt. Which the client agreed too.

    The second one is a batik, the client choose a pantograph called 'Hurricane' along with a variegated thread.

    Both quilts have Hobbs 80/20 batting, the client wishes to bind them.

    Pretty quilts but I am quite surprised you recommended to your client to mix the paisley pattern with the meander. While the paisley quilting design is very pretty, it is a much smaller scale of quilting and much denser than the very loose large meander in the field. The change seems rather abrupt to me and doesn't flow with the center design due to the change in density of quilting and scale. Just wondering why you didn't change the scale of the digital design of one or the other so they would be more complimentary to each other.
