A repeated hibiscus flower would do nicely. I made three tropical quilts last year and I had my longarmer use that pattern. It was gorgeous.

I love this quilt. In my quilt universe you can never have too much print!
Since I do lots like this, I can say that I agree w/ those that suggest a meandering all-over. It just isn't worth the time to do fussy quilting when it doesn't really show up :-D :-D |
I vote for the meander as well. Fancy quilting won't show up, so save yourself the work. Great qulit.

I like the way you have used the fabric. |
I love Hawaiian prints! I agree with the allover meander or something simple since it won't show much......unless you have something you want to practice, like machine quilting feathers or something like that----this is the perfect quilt to practice on!
|
I agree with Luvspaper. It seems the majority thinks you should meander. Since I prefer hand stitching, I stay away from meandering. It would be a good time to do diagonal lines in both directions or to use a pattern or several patterns you would like to practice before using them on a future quilt.

Found this pantograph for sale and it would mimic the flowers.

reminds me of Hawaii..all over med to large stippel...great job :thumbup:
|
I love this quilt and staring at it a long time didn't hurt a bit. I would do meandering too.
|
You have a lovely quilt. Even crosshatch would work.
|
Ditto!!!!
|
Love your batting choice.
|
Meander. Sounds boring but you've got alot going on in that quilt. Love the Hawaiian shirts!
|
An all-over pattern would be nice!
|
Meander !!!
|
Have to think what will show up on the back -How about some of the big Hawaiian flowers?
|
meander--anything else would be a waste of time and energy--fun quilt!
|
Whatever you do, please show us!!!
Fun quilt! |
I would quilt large circles with smaller ones inside each circle
|
Very pretty, awesome job.
|
Really like your quilt. It's so pretty and colorful. I vote for a meander quilting on it too. :lol:

All over design. I might quilt this one from the back side! :lol: :wink: :lol:
|
I vote for SID or diagonal lines.
|
I think a meander will work fine. With that much going on with the fabric the quilting is secondary. The fabric will be the star and that's a good thing.
|
Very Colorful. Needs to meander or out line some of the larger flowers.
|
Meander ... and add a couple areas with tighter stitch: Stippling for
contrast |

With a busy quilt like this I think the meander quilting works best
