I think this is all so subjective. I like all quilting...if I am going to snuggle with a couch quilt ....like in my house our living room quilts all have flannel tops..minkee backs and they are used every single day...I quilted an all over loose design ...because we want to feel the comfort of the material...and we want to drape and be soft.

If I am making a wall hanging or a show quilt....it should be quilted pretty heavily...it needs to lay flat and straight or it won't hang or show well..

I do try to plan all of my quilting....I think the quilting has to match the intent of the quilt and quilter. if it is a comfort quilt it needs to be comfortable.....a show quilt isn't going to be used on the couch with your kids and dogs..so it can be stiff....Above all I want to make my client happy...I NEED to know if my client likes heavy quilting...light quilting....if they hate feathers ect.... I try to meet those needs.

Thanks for asking...and for looking!
