Those and dandelion heads are some of my favourite silhouettes.Helenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02327105310326937424noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4668543842656319922.post-33827625510108375002008-04-26T07:44:00.000+01:002008-04-26T07:44:00.000+01:00Thank you so much to everyone who has given me suc...Thank you so much to everyone who has given me such helpful advise on the development of the quilt, I can now get into the stitch with much more confidence.<BR/>And a big thank you to the dedication of the two people who spotted the myriad of sp mistakes that I made on the flyer, before it went to be printed, I am so grateful, and it just goes to prove once again what a great lot the blogging community are.sharon younghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11227806755585216350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4668543842656319922.post-17446197197332721492008-04-26T05:17:00.000+01:002008-04-26T05:17:00.000+01:00Sharon, this is looking amazing. I agree with the ...Sharon, this is looking amazing. I agree with the FME approach, although lines radiating from your focal point might look effective, deviating to circle some of the parts. The quilting is only to keep the layers together so if you can do that while getting the effect you want that would be the aim.Aussie Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11520718297781896214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4668543842656319922.post-23757035391564549372008-04-25T23:30:00.000+01:002008-04-25T23:30:00.000+01:00This looks lovely Sharon, If its bondawebbed down ...This looks lovely Sharon, If its bondawebbed down it wont move when you quilt it and I agree with Shirley felt or a thin batting may give a better effecthippopiphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09595850514267263996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4668543842656319922.post-13605124892286332032008-04-25T15:10:00.000+01:002008-04-25T15:10:00.000+01:00These are looking good!There is an award for you o...These are looking good!<BR/>There is an award for you on my Garden blog if you care to take a look.<BR/>Regards<BR/>KarenAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4668543842656319922.post-83692347543145963622008-04-25T12:22:00.000+01:002008-04-25T12:22:00.000+01:00The quilt looks great.

It's always better to add than to remove quilting stitches, especially when the pieces are bonded.Françoisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11177778039745875900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4668543842656319922.post-364748075266957092008-04-25T11:53:00.000+01:002008-04-25T11:53:00.000+01:00HIBe aware that today, quilting does not have to b...HI<BR/>Be aware that today, quilting does not have to be geometric shape all over stitching any more. You can free machine using the content as the stitch lines e.g. the parsley and bird circles and you can use decorative stitching such as vermicelli to fill areas. If it is going to be a hanginf - you don't need a thick batting. I have used fleece lining as batting.<BR/>Hope this helps.<BR/>CheersShirley Anne Sherrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15802613285739321177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4668543842656319922.post-21200541387792282112008-04-25T08:47:00.000+01:002008-04-25T08:47:00.000+01:00Very best of luck with your exhibition Sharon.
