Is it hand quilted? It looks like work my DM did on some of her hand quilting projects.

Looks like regular hand quilting, very neatly done. Just do a search on hand quilting.

Beautiful quilt...Love red and white and the quilting is gorgeous. You could do machine with a 12 weight thread. Try a few samples first. Good luck.

If you Google "Big Stitch Quilting", you should find some books on this method. It is not topstitching, but rather hand quilting using thicker thread, a larger needle, and making larger stitches.

Fons and Porter had a show about wool quilts and showed them quilted in a style similar to that. They called it utility quilting.

I really didn't know what to call it but have now found lots of help under utility & big stitch quilting. Thanks for all the help- you guys are great!!!!

I call it utility quilting...and do it with pearl cotton thread and a chenille needle. Love the look...and how fast the quilting gets done!
