Fanciful flowers piecing complete
1 Attachment(s)
Just finished piecing this top. It is the first one I have done all by myself with no help from my DSIL. It was a kit from Annie's. I am real pleased with it. Now I want to try and quilt myself. Any suggestions on what to do??:D

I love your quilt and the only way I could quilt it would be in the ditch and around the petals.
|
Congratulations! You've done a wonderful job!
|
Oh my, that is so pretty! I agree with Cyn about the quilting part. If you've not done much of the quilting part, you might want to start with something straight forward, simple & enjoyable!

Wow! I love it!
|
What a great job. Love the colors.
|
It is beautiful.....keep it simply as far as quilting....
|
Margaret... the 1st thing I'd do is sit back and admire! You did a beautiful job!!
I agree on keeping the quilting simple. The fabric and design speaks for it's self. |
That's beautiful. Are the spirals in the fabric or did you make them?
|
It is wonderful!
|
Wow--I really love this. Colors are beautiful. Thanks for sharing the photo

You could follow the shape of the petals quilting just inside the edge then again inside that stitching line, and maybe one more time. time. Then echo quilt following outside of the petals for a few rows in the flower blocks. I did something similar on one of my first projects and following a shape is easier than stitching in the ditch. Your quilt is beautiful! Bet your SIL is proud of you!
|
Wow love it! Your colour scheme is wonderful.
|
luv this..............beautiful kit u did
|
I absolutely LOVE this! Great work! Thanks for sharing!
Sorry I can't be any help with quilting - I'm still learning that myself. Here's a picture I found Pinterest that shows some quilting. |
Your quilt is gorgeous! You should be very proud of yourself. I agree with others, stitch in the ditch and echo the flowers and stuff.
|
Beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!

Very pretty! I think an all over meander would be nice. Gina

What a beautiful quilt; also your quilting and work.
|
Awesome!!!
|
You might try echo quilting the petals ( just a couple lines in each) and stippling the background of those blocks. It would be nice to have a design quilted into each bigger piece. It isn't too hard - you concentrate on one block at a time and it will go well!
|
It's beautiful!!!!
|
I love it.
|
WOW you did a wonderful job.
|
Stitch in ditch...outline
|
Does the pattern have a name? Love the colors!
|
Absolutely beautiful quilt. Love the colors and fabric you chose. Gorgeous.
|
I love your quilt!! You did a super job. It's gorgeous!! Depends on if you are hand quilting or machine quilting as to how I would proceed. Which one are you doing?
|
Excellent!! I agree with keeping it simple. That way the wonderful piecing will show well. Just gorgeous colors and workmanship.
|
I would suggest printing a copy of this picture ( you can use a low resolution to save ink) on a standard size of paper and then draw on it to give yourself some ideas of what the quilting would look like, and help you decide . I'm sure whatever you decide will be lovely , as your quit is just beautiful!!
|
Congratulations. That is beautiful. You did a wonderful job.
|
Great quilt and have fun quilting.
|
It's gorgeous! The flower centers and vines look complicated, but you did a wonderful job.
|
Can't help with the quilting but your top is ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS!
|
Wow, I love your quilt, the pattern, colors, and you did a great job on it. Can hardly wait to see how you quilt it.
|
I have seen that pattern and I love the colors you used.....great job!!!!
