cegates Posted June 11, 2017 Report Share Posted June 11, 2017 My customer requested "pretty but on a budget". The panto we chose was pretty, but I just couldn't stand how the stars looked. My customer agreed to pay extra for SID around the stars - I love the results!! The SID really didn't take very long, and without all the other work that goes into a custom quilting job, it was budget friendly. This could be my new "in-between" quilting for those who don't want full custom but want something a little better than E2E. Carol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stitchin cricket Posted June 11, 2017 Report Share Posted June 11, 2017 Is the E2E pattern one that can be purchased? It looks great on the quilt and with SID around the stars, they stand out. A perfect combination for this quilt. Thanks for sharing. Happy quilting, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RosemaryJ08 Posted June 13, 2017 Report Share Posted June 13, 2017 Carol, Love the idea and the panto is perfect ! Did you order a custom size? Your stitching looks to be around 2 inches apart I love open quilting designs Thanks for posting, another idea learned !!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PennyQuilts2 Posted June 14, 2017 Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 That was a great idea. Your client must be thrilled they spent the extra. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cagey Posted June 14, 2017 Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 Carol; The quilting turned out beautiful. The little extra time you put in SIDing the stars really made them pop. Hopefully you save a few pictures and show them to future customers so they can get a feel for what a little "custom work" will do on their quilt tops. A picture is worth a thousand words as they say. Thank you for sharing your work. Cagey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
