Finally got it together and final pressing this AM......now to decide how to finish quilting it..
.......it is a small, 8"square (small hanging) so it won't need too much. I would love to be able to machine quilt but it just isn't one of my talents !!!!!!!! How would diagonal stitching from the flower out to all edges look? Any suggestions gladly accepted. Thanks.........mj two shades of pink in flower, 3 greens in leaves [ATTACH=CONFIG]82625[/ATTACH] blue mottled background (closeup) [ATTACH=CONFIG]82626[/ATTACH] |
I love love love it!!! I also hand stitch,, I have a machine,, but find doing it by hand it better for me. I have not ventured to PP ,,, yet,,, maybe one day....
|
Wow, that is pretty. It looks real.
|
No advice on quilting it from me, but it looks very pretty.
|
MJ, that is gorgeous!!!!!!!!!!!!
|

|
That is Beautiful, I have never done PP you make me want to give it a try.
|
That is so beautiful!!! Can I have it???? When I first looked at it, all I could say was WOW!!!!
|
Great job! Beautiful piecing.
|
This is stunning ,mj and you aren't even finished!!
|
Nicely done. All those small pieces! Wow!
|
That is beautiful, I love it.
|
By all means, quilt it by hand! It's small, so should go fast. Easy to remove the stitches if you don't like them. Keep up the good work!
|
That is pretty.
|
As a hand quilter I would echo quilt around the flower and leaves do a little accent quiting around the yellow center. You could add some veins in the leaves.
Then see if it need something to the edge, like diagonal from the echo. Really pretty. |
This is very pretty. Too pretty to practice FMQ. Copy the outline of this flower onto some muslin, make a quilt sandwich and practice your FMQ first. You will be glad you did.
|
Beautiful job! Echo quilting comes to mind; with all the straight pp seams I would lean toward quilting with curves.
|
Opened the post up... "oh is that pretty!!!" First reaction to it.. Great job!
|
Love it, you did a great job...I also love pp and do a lot of it...
|
WOW, love it!!
|
It's so beautiful!!!!!!! I don't think it even needs quilting but that's just MO :D
|
Gorgeous! There must be 50 pieces in that thing!
|
love it so so beautiful

Thanks for the very nice comments...they sure are appreciated.
It took awhile to get into the pp, and with each piece I do, I learn another easier step for the next one. Try it, it is addictive.......... |
Beautiful :-P
|
so neat!
|
That's a fabulous design and you did a great job with the piecing.
|
Lovely!
|
Wow, that is absolutely gorgeous!
|
It truly is beautiful! My first thought was echo quilting and I have read the posts and it has been suggested many times. Nice job!
|
That is beautiful!!! I don't know how I would quilt it...
|
Very pretty, I agree with quilting it by hand in the echo quilting meathod.
|
Wow, that is beautiful. It is a work of art. I have no suggestions of how to quilt it.
|
Wow, That is So Nice, I am too afraid to try one. I really must try pp
|
Lovely!!
