Finally finished hand quilting a double knit quilt. the top was given to me last year and I put it together and use double knit material on the back. Quilted it so the back stitching looked like the front and I stenciled flowers in the corners of the squares and hand quilted the border using a stencil with pounce powder. Double knit was easy to work with for hand stitching. Top of the quilt was hand sewn by a friend of my family and asked me if I would like to have it and finish it. It really came out nicely. Use double knit material on the back.

wow, nice, and I love the color of the pink on the back! :D

That is so nice! Never thought to use double knit. It is really soft!

Oooh, good job, it looks so neat and fresh, you did a great job. My MIL made a lot of double knit quilts, they are so soft and warm.

Great job!

so pretty,nice job

Wow, great quilt, and excellent quilting.

that is so pretty, love the quilting on the back.

Looks great!

Oh that is nice. My very favorite quilt to snuggle under is a double knit i made the first year i quilted, its ugly but warm, yours is beautiful.

Did you use a hoop to hand quilt?

Very nice. :thumbup:

Great Work!

I love the that the back is just as pretty as the front.

Its really pretty!

Beautiful :!:

Great job!!!

i used a hoop when i did the flowers but the borders i did not.

I was afraid that the hoop would make the fabric stretch but that's how I would probably do it. Thanks.

You did a great job. That looks so professional, maybe you are an expert. You did great anyway. I love it.

Oh that is just too lovely! I can see how knit fabric would be easy to work with too. You sure did a fine job on the quilting and I just love the colors!

Beautiful job! i think I like the back almost more than the front

Cool quilt. Great job.

Very pretty Applique work, and your quilting is beautiful :D:D:D

What a beautiful quilt...I always wondered how "double knit" worked out..now I know - Thanks.

It was easy to work with as it gives enough to quilt without stretching.

the quilt was already appliqued from years before, I just had to finish it . I am not good at applique but just quilting around the flowers was easy. Needed the flowers in the corners and I added little plastic flower buttons in the middle of the flowers that I got at Joann's on sale. The think the quilt top is about 50 years old and the squares are all hand sewn to together. Glad it is finished so I can work on another quilt.

That's gorgeous!!!! Did you use batting??

Wow, I think that's the nicest doubleknit quilt I've seen. Great colors.

Both front and back are WOW!

yes, i use polyester batting as it was easy to quilt.

What a beautiful idea

was it hard to quilt I hand quilt also rosefrench

That is just beautiful. You did a great job.

great quilt, love the pink on the back

it was easier to hand quilt than I thought it would be.

Very nice.

Hi, I was given a "bunch" (boxes) of material that is double knit material. Do you have any 'special' rules for sewing a double knit quilt? Some of the material is beautiful.

I never saw that pattern it looks really nice very eye appealing.

Beautiful quilt and the back is so nice love the hand quilting :D
