Hi all! I'm brand new to this board, and also really to quilting. Closest I've come so far is some patchwork, but I've never truly quilted. I have a lot of sewing experience, but I have a current project I'd like to tackle and I'm looking for some advice.
I made the chuppah cover for my brother-in-law's wedding this weekend, and now that it's over, I'm going to make it into a quilt and give it to them as a wedding gift. I would love some suggestions on the best way to go about it. What I have now is basically a 44" wide length of green calico (with a white stripe and all-over chrysanthemum print) bordered by 22" wide white leafy print strips on either side. Backed with white muslin. So it's pretty simple, yet totally meaningful and my new sister-in-law kept saying how much she liked the material, so I don't need to change that. But I do want ideas on how to quilt it nicely (and obviously, something a newbie can do). :o)
I have one idea, but I'd like to see what advice I get as well! Thanks so much!
