Default 3 quilts

Hi all.

What colour binding??

[ATTACH=CONFIG]615217[/ATTACH]

How owe should I quilt this? I don’t want to do a pano

And for show. This baby has over 630 squares. It’s a bit wonky at the bottom because the woode backing isn’t as long as The felt

thanks for looking and commenting

I don't see a photo of the 3rd quilt (perhaps you're still uploading?) . The ones I see are gorgeous, though. For the top quilt, I would repeat the dark blue batik for the binding. For the floral quilt, I can pictures echoing the flowers in their blocks, and concentric squares in the boxes. But you are the queen of quilting; I've seen your work and am always ga-ga over it, so please take my suggestion with a teeny tiny grain of salt.

Beautiful quilts, but #3 didn't come through. Binding on the first...I would go with the dark blue that is at the base of the flowers.

Could you outline quilt the flowers, then small meander quilt in the black. A corner motif would look great in those large light colored areas. Could you start that design in the colored framing. That leaves the light smaller rectangles to quilt with a loose filler stitch. But what do I know...I haven't gotten too far beyond meandering.

Wish I could see the last...as I love quilts with smaller pieces.

The first one - binding in one of the shades of dark blue.

The second one - Quilting - no suggestions - as others have seen, your quilting is beautiful.

The third one - rich looking fabrics - what is the question (if any?)

I also agree with those who said the blue on the first one but no suggestions otherwise.
All are gorgeous- you don't do anything less than!

Gorgeous! Binding on the first one I would coordinate with the colour that matches the front and back. I might look through the designs that Natalie Bonner is doing on her Let’s Stitch YouTube 365 design series and put a different one in each of the squares. I would SITD the straight frames first and outline stitch the flowers and a few of the details.

Beautiful quilts! 1)Blue binding, 2)No idea on the quilting and #)Is there a pair of pieces that need reversing near the center of the lower section of the quilt? The colors are fantastic and the quilt will be lovely when finished.

What gorgeous quilts! I remember you asking about the BQ -- that turned out more beautiful than I could have imagined! The batik is just stunning with the flowers.

I agree with the dark binding on the first one.
