    Default Finishing Tumbler Quilt

    I just finished a tumbler quilt top using the MSQC 5" tumbler template. I'm ready to machine quilt but not sure what design/pattern to use. Any suggestions?

    I just did a tumbler quilt and I will be putting mine on the frame and I don't know what I'll do yet. I don't like SITD on the frame so I'll probably do some loops and maybe hearts.

    I think the tumbler lends itself to an overall design.

    I recently did some large mug rugs using the apple core template and I quilted 1/4" from the seam using a serpentine stitch from my machine. I love it. Maybe a decorative stitch at a given distance from the tumbler seam would work for you as well.
