That is captivating!!
So pretty!!! Diagonals sound great. Think it would draw the attention right to the center. Can't wait to see it finished. |
Beautiful job on the flower block. Looks so real. I don't know about the quilting but someone else will have the answer for that
|
Oh, I know Silverlinings. They have wonderful PP patterns. I haven't done any, but I have printed lots of their free patterns.
Thank you for sharing that! Dani

I ordered it from http://www.silverliningsoriginals.com/ They have beautiful patterns, not only of flowers but birds and animals. |
I really enjoy PP and find the decision about quilting the most difficult too. Your work is exceptional!

Great job you did on that fabulous flower!! Thanks for the link too, it gave me a pattern I was looking for - an elephant!! looking to design a quilt for my DGS and he loves elephants! I agree with the echo quilting on this, would make it pop even more. Please let us see a finished picture when you have quilted it and framed it.

Wow this piece is fantastic, love the colors. You did a great job on this PP.
|
I love paper piecing and flowers. Your block is just beautiful!!
|
This is beautiful....I LOVE it!!!
I am a huge fan of paper piecing. I think line coming out from the flower would look good. Kind of like rays of sunshine. |
Look for free motion quilting on Leah Day Styles Designs.

.......it is a small, 8"square (small hanging) so it won't need too much. I would love to be able to machine quilt but it just isn't one of my talents !!!!!!!! How would diagonal stitching from the flower out to all edges look? Any suggestions gladly accepted. Thanks.........mj |
