I'm going to be quilting it with a dark grey thread. I'd like to do a pantograph because I don't have a lot of time to finish it, but do you think that is going to detract to much from the hearts? Otherwise I could do a FMQ loopy meander.

quilting pattern
Are you sick of this quilt yet? I need more advice though. And I like polls. :)

I don't think I would like to see grey thread on the hearts. Maybe if you quilted around them.
ReplyDeleteOh, that is a great quilt! I would probably do a stitch in the ditch around the hearts with the gray thread.
ReplyDeleteI'm useless concerning your decision making. Just stopping by to say how much I enjoy seeing this come together. :)
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't want to see gray thread over the hearts, I would outline them.
ReplyDeleteI would like to vote but I have no idea what the poll is asking : )
ReplyDeleteSo I'm going to say that whatever you decide will be perfect because the quilt looks great already!
Okay I know that you didn't give this option, but I think a simple cross hatching over the entire quilt would look nice. Or an all over zigzag.
ReplyDeleteI am definitely not sick of seeing this quilt yet! Quite the opposite. It makes me so happy!
ReplyDeleteI love this quilt! If you're in a hurry I'd go for the pantograph or just straight lines running top to bottom :)
ReplyDeleteLike some of the others, I'm not sure about the dark gray thread over the hearts. If you went with a lighter gray maybe it would kind of blend into the colors and yet also show up on the gray. Just a thought.
ReplyDeleteI love it! What sort of panto are you thinking of? I have fallen in love with the pantograph Denyse Schmidt uses on her quilts (go google and take a close look - many are the same quilting). Simple and really makes the blocks shine! :) That's my opinion though. :) And grey thread or sure.
