I love to do swirls on quilts like this. They are simple and give it lots of movement.

I am by no means qualified to comment, but how about some gentle curves between the music notes and echo the other blocks?

I must say, Karla these are absolutely beautiful! They really sing! (sorry for the pathetic pun)

Beautiful choices for fabrics.

They sound innocent enough, but I bet I'd botch them. Do you have a picture I could practice on with my finger? Oh--I do have a quilting program... maybe it has a swirl. Quilting on paper gives me the heebie jeebies though. :roll:

:lol: Great pun! Gentle curves on the white with black notes fabric? If I don't touch the notes, it'd work. Or did you mean the black fabric on Aiden's?

I should have mentioned the blocks are 4.5--quilt size is about 37". They're for studying, talking about, and dragging around. :-D

Then I could stick to white thread! Is that what you'd use? I studied it and I think I'd stop and move between the blocks rather than try to cut through the colors... agreed?

Those are both darling quilts. I love the musical fabric. Great touch. I would do a meander on it.

those are so nice!

Yes, curves on the white with black notes - without touching the notes....leaving the colours out would really work well, then you could just use the one colour thread and Wow....Whatever you decide...these are going to look amazing.

love it great quilt
