Martha Lynn Posted May 15, 2014 Report Share Posted May 15, 2014 Received this from a customer and need help with what to put on it. Will a feather wreath look good? Just so new at this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QuilterB Posted May 15, 2014 Report Share Posted May 15, 2014 I think a pantograph would be nice also. Something curvy to compliment the straight lines. I am sure you get some great ideas here. I always do! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martha Lynn Posted May 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2014 Thank you. Wasn't sure how to handle the straight lines. Define them or break them up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shirleyl Posted May 16, 2014 Report Share Posted May 16, 2014 Something with swirls, movement, feathers would work. Something with a flow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quilting Heidi Posted May 16, 2014 Report Share Posted May 16, 2014 Unless your customer wants custom I'd do a panto on that. Swirls will add some interest. Feather meander would look nice too and let you practice :-). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martha Lynn Posted May 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2014 Thank you for the suggestion Heidi. I was thinking of a feather pantograph. It is not real tight and just flows beautiful. I definitely need practice. I haven't done feathers so I think this will be really good practice. Thank you all for the suggestions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweetiepie2 Posted May 17, 2014 Report Share Posted May 17, 2014 Myself, I would love to see it just meandered on. I think those rectangles look really neat with the puffy, bubbly pattern that the meandering makes. It's just my opinion, but that's what I'd get if it were my quilt.

Bonnie H Posted May 17, 2014 Report Share Posted May 17, 2014 If you are looking for a nice and easy feather panto that is not tight, two-fold feathers is pretty and would look nice on this quilt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martha Lynn Posted May 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2014 Thank you. Think I am going to go with the easy feather panto. It is not a tight pattern and flows really pretty. Thank you everyone for your suggestions. Really appreciate the help!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merryjo2003 Posted May 18, 2014 Report Share Posted May 18, 2014 Is that a grape fabric? If so and they are into wine, there's a panto called vineyard which would also look nice. I have some customers that like in wine country (Napa, Sonoma, CA), they love anything relating to vineyards and the wine industry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MelissaNH Posted May 19, 2014 Report Share Posted May 19, 2014 I was thinking panto too (LOL, I'm pretty new, so that's always my first guess....). There is one from willowleaf studios called Tickle that is really swirly/feathery and I think it would compliment the straight lines nicely.
