Bonnie in Ok Posted August 12, 2010 Report Share Posted August 12, 2010 These are some pitures sent to me while waiting for the quilt thru the mail and was asked to quilt this. I wanted to ask for some ideas other than thinking I need to outline the embroidery stictching. Seems you girls always come up with some really good ideas so would apperciate any ideas. Thanks Bonnie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Primitive1 Posted August 12, 2010 Report Share Posted August 12, 2010 I would play with the backgrounds on each picture, maybe something pertaining to each picture, maybe something like those little half feathers that alternate in the green borders and then some big feathers in the empty triangles....?

Kueser Posted August 12, 2010 Report Share Posted August 12, 2010 What an adorable top. Is there a pattern? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BethDurand Posted August 12, 2010 Report Share Posted August 12, 2010 I think you're going to need to hold down their "skirts" as well, so maybe something swoopy to make them look like poofy dresses? I like the idea of outlining the embroidery, or even crosshatching the background? I'm sure that someone else out there will have an inspiration for you.

Quilting Heidi Posted August 12, 2010 Report Share Posted August 12, 2010 cross hatching and feathers would really make this quilt even more beautiful but I'm very traditional. I like the idea of different backgrounds too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kristiequilts Posted August 12, 2010 Report Share Posted August 12, 2010 I'm with Heidi. I like traditional for this quilt because of the old hankies. Crosshatch and elegant feathers in the borders and empty triangles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
