Threads of Love quilt

I've had this top done for a couple of weeks. I designed it for my studio wall. Measuring 50x61. It only took one Scrumptious charm pack plus 6 extra charms pulled from the Marmalade line. My thoughts were to add some embroidery in the the gray area that surrounds the snowball blocks. However its been so long since I've done hand embroidery I just couldn't seem to find the right pattern, and designing one....well I did try but....I gave up! Still keeping my eyes open for just the right addition. Maybe just some nice quilting.

Great design, I have recently bought a charm pack and was wondering what I could do with it.

looks like spools and bobbins. Cool!

Well, isn't that cool? Spools and bobbins for sure!

​Cute and you can always put a fancy quilting design in the blank areas. Some hand embroidered sewing implements would be cute with a little saying like.....As you sew...so shall you rip.

DJ 12-10-2013 12:09 PM

Perfect for a studio! Lovely fabrics and great theme.

leatheflea 12-10-2013 12:26 PM

I thought about embroidering.....May Your Bobbins Always be full

Tartan 12-10-2013 02:01 PM

I like...may your bobbins always be full! You could also find some embroidery designs of needle/ spool with thread trail going to the saying?

wonderful quilt

lots2do 12-10-2013 02:27 PM

You could look for a quilt stencil and then use a back stitch to embroider. I like the idea of a swirly design that could look like thread. Love the saying idea too. Sulky sells a nice cotton thread for embroidery. It's on a spool and doesn't need to be separated. Nice quilt!

Beautiful!!!!

lfstamper 12-10-2013 04:28 PM

Great design! What about spools and bobbins in the quilting or thread.

ghquilter53 12-12-2013 06:16 AM

Scrumptious is my favorite line of fabric right now and I still have fabric left from a quilt. This is a wonderful idea. Love your quilt.
