    Quilting Ideas?

    I'm to the stage of quilting the top of an Irish Spring quilt. I need an idea of a design to use other that stippling. Anyone??

    Do you have a picture? I'm not familiar with that quilt. The only suggestions I can give without seeing it is SITD or cross hatching.

      It looks very much like this. (Making a duplicate)

        It is a very bad Picture but I made a flower in the single colored block

        God, Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
        The stash to make a quilt to help me cope,
        A quilt to give to comfort those I love in times of hurt, fear and uncertainty.
        And the courage to keep on sewing when life itself seems held together by a single thread of hope.

          Leah Day's blog - over 400 designs. She has a short video showing you how to do them - only last about a minute I think, but very interesting.

              Thank you. It is nice to see another Irish chain with that area designed.

                  Everybody's quilting is so beautiful!

                  Jean - your flowers remind me of Ann Petersen's Continuous Line Quilting over at Craftsy. She taught how to do a flower like that.

                  In addition to the pretty flower quilting, I suggest diagonal quilting first through all the little squares to anchor the quilt down.
