I havenīt got round to the nitty gritty of quilting so canīt help there Iīm afraid, Elle |

Very nice - love the colors. Good luck quilting.
|
Beautiful colours, I'm drawn towards earthy tones. sorry I'm new to quilting also so not too sure where to advise you as to where to start. One of the experts here will though I'm sure - Good Luck.

I'm not sure how I would quilt that, but I had to say I love the design and colors!
|
Very pretty! Love the colors!
|
Just wanted to say what a lovely quilt and how nice the colours are

This quilt could take any kind of quilting or be tied. It's all according to what you like todo. Are you a machine quilter or hand quilter :?: stitch in the ditch or meander :D I'm not much help I guess lol Anyway it is very pretty, i like the colors you chose..they go well together :D
|
That is gorgeous!! I, too, LOVE earthy. I'd do a fairly large meander to not distract from the deisgn. I'd use a variegated gold-brown-thread. Oh, I mean that's what I'd ask my quilter to do. :lol:
|
Verrrrrrrrry pretttttttttttty quilt. I love the colors. Sorry I can't help you either with how to quilt it as I'd just take it to my quilter. Let us know what you decide and we also want to see the finished product.
|
I love the colors you used. Quilting ideas - that is where I always need help :?
|
Personally, I would either tie it with a varigated pearl cotton floss or stitch in the ditch. Gorgeous quilt and great job on it!!!

Beautiful! I think I would stitch in the ditch on the diagonal lines, then step back & look. If I was on a roll, then I might do the horizontal & verticals too. :)
|
How cool. You have a clothesline. LOL Haven't seen one of those in years. I love the colors in your quilt. Nice job too. Find a stencil you like and size it to fit your blocks is one option.
|
free motion big loops!
|
I love your color choice!!!!!
|
No ideas on how to quilt it but boy it sure is beautiful!!! Awesome use of earthtones!
|
I love the colors you chose. I usually quilt in straight lines.
Sometimes I stitch a quarter inch from the seam instead of stitching in the ditch. |
I love those colors! They remind me of autumn. Beautiful quilt!
|
Thank you everyone for your kind words and ideas on quilting.
Jacquemoe,.... I had to laugh when you said"a clothesline" haven't seen one of them in years. I have to have one, just love the smell of fresh dried sheets and towels. Hubby wanted to take them down, but I won't let him. |
Striking quilt. I love the colors. so "fall" and cozy.
|
Great job, love the colors.
|
Can't help you with the quilting part, but it's nice!
I know, no help at all, right? lol |

I agree, love the quilt. :-o |
Beautiful! I would definitely stitch in the ditch so not to take away from the pattern and then do a free motion or stencil of some kind on the borders.
|
Oh my how nice....I think I would quilt a quarter inch in on all the blocks..not something to busy but busy enough...good luck on picking a design..always a hard part...let us see it when it is done... :-)
|
WOw I just love the colors and all beautiful job. My first thought was stitch in the ditch and if you don't like that I think you can add more don't you think? 8)
|
That quilt is a looker! Beautiful! You do such nice piecing, I can't wait to see the quilting!
|
wow. i love it. thats a quilt i really want to try. i made one block and it was fairly easy. i love the colors as well
|
Thanks everyone for your ideas!!! I may just do a stitch in the ditch so that it does not take away from the pinwheels. I can't wait to attempt this one. I have been looking for the perfect backing and think I have decided on it. Making the topper was easy, the choices are always the hardest!
|
That is some pretty!
|
Is the material batiks that you used? Can't take my eyes off from it, the color is so striking
|
Nice job!
|
I would use a good batting like warm and natural -- baste good and then do a stitch in the ditch quilting.
with the warm and natural you can quilt about every 6" and make it sturdy for washing. I might use a nice border binding to make the colors pop |
Binding is a Batik - dark green, really looks good when I hold it up to the topper.
Salisaquilter, thank you for your suggestions, they are much appreciated! :-) |
Great colors, can't wait to see it completed.
|
Great looking quilt, I also love the colors. I think you could tie it or sew in the ditch and it will look great.
|
wow ! I love tha fall colors ! have you checked out any books? Amish style is plain around inside of each triangle. The boarder is a fun wide strip that could be creative! Good luck ! Love to know the rest of the story!
