Rosebud Wreath

Post by momof6quilts » Wed Jul 23, 2008 12:54 pm

I finished this wall hanging top today. Because it is "due" by August 20th I was wondering what type of quilting I should use. I don't free motion machine quilt, but I can stitch in the ditch. Any suggestions?

It is beautiful! I am not sure what to tell you about quilting, maybe 1/4 around everything.

I just bought something called "Blocks Made Easy" at my LQS. It is an adhesive edged pattern that you can sew right over. The one that I bought is a 6.5 x 6.5 block pattern (24 on the roll). It might be something for you to consider. They also had fancy borders on the roll too. The lady at the LQS said that it was easy to use. It might give you confidence to start doing your own free motion quilting.
