Asian quilt top finished
1 Attachment(s)
Finished this tonight! I'm sure y'all have seen the other pictures in progress. I've been thinking about how to quilt it and drawing some designs. I would like to do branches and cherry blossoms in the outer burgundy strips, clam shells in the black strips, and a fan design in the pink. Only thing is my ideas are better than my quilting.

It's a beauty and your quilting ideas sound lovely. I have been trying to improve my FMQ skills and what has helped me is to worry only about the small section that is on my machine bed. I do the best job I can in that section and then reposition my hands and the quilt for the adjacent section, working outward.
|
I need to order a 2" clam shell longarm template, the strips are 8" wide, to help with that. I guess if I can draw on paper what I want to do with the branches, I should be able to draw it on the quilt so I will get a roll of paper. I don't know why I have such trouble getting my ideas to quilted. Need to work on that.

I absolutely LOVE your quilt! LOTS and lots of open spaces for quilting - I can't wait to see what you do! I'm at the point where I piece just to have something to quilt!!! LOL*

I'm with you "only thing is my ideas are better than my quilting". But if you have the ideas the skill level is soon to follow. Beautiful quilt and wonderful ideas for quilting it!
