    This is a quilt that I put the top together over a year ago and just last night was able to get it sandwiched and spray-basted. I could use some quilting suggestions. I envision maybe an allover flower motif, except that my FHQ level is at pre-school and I think that what I want is over my skill level.
    Anyway, Terri sent Izzy some fabrics and a couple of the fabrics were in this quilt so she requested a picture of the quilt.

    It is a queen size, 96x96 so since I only had DH holding it we decided not to unroll the whole quilt. Whenever I get it done I will take a picture of the whole thing.

    The pattern is called " 3-6-9 Quilt" by P3 Designs. It is one of those fat quarter patterns and went together really really fast and easy. According to the pattern this queen is actually 99x99. I measured it loosely yesterday to determine if I could use my roll batting or I needed a King Size batting, which I had to use the King size.

    So pretty. I would meander with variegated thread. That's my favorite quilting method. Especially with a colorful quilt like yours.

    littlehud's idea sounds pretty for a pretty quilt.
    If that sounds too hard, didn't Izy just do a quilt with a wavy quilting, that Jackie suggested? That turned out really nice. :)
