quilting a Dahlia pattern
#1
Hello,
I just finished a Dahlia and I'd like to know if there is a traditionnal way to quilt it. I already quilted every petal, and now I don't know how or what to do around.
If you have any ideas, I'll be grateful !
Have a nice day!
Patricia

That is beautiful. Nice work. As to finish quilting it, I've seen where they have cross hatched it from the petals outward sorta arched and I've seen just radiating lines from the petal points. I'm sure whatever you choose will be beautiful.

Here is a link to a great stencil for the dahlia

I think you can do this without the stencil easily.
