    Default Common Sense quilt
    I just finished make the common sense pattern in my version. I am going to send it to the quilter to quilt as soon as I decide on the backing. Has anyone made this quilt? How was it quilted. I am open to suggestions. If I had a lick of common sense, I would have never started it. It is not hard, but probably about 1600 pieces all cut individually. I am so happy to have the top finished, but I don't know what to tell my quilter. Help![ATTACH=CONFIG]509389[/ATTACH]

    No ideas for quilting it, but I'd like to say it's a beauty!

    If you trust your quilter, perhaps she could give you suggestions. It's a beautiful quilt and if she's been long-arming for a while, she might know how best to set it off from past experience.

    I'm a big fan of different size crosshatch quilting. It seems to go with every quilt pattern.

    Great looking quilt. If you've used the LA before and trust her be open to her suggestions. Love the colors. 1600 pieces, individually? Wow.
