Decisions, decisions -

 

 

Well - I decided to use BLACK thread - 

 

Wound one bobbin - 

 

Threaded the machine - 

 

Made chalk lines on some of the squares -

For the direction of stitching - 

 

And stopped there - 

 

 

In the plain squares and the black/white flying geese units -

I was thinking of doing diagonal lines back and forth -

Changing direction in each square and in each half of the flying geese - 

To go the opposite direction of the "wing" seam - 

  

The center portion of the quilt is really dense patchwork - 

And the quilting won't show -

So I thought I should do something simple like wavy lines - 

Across the stars and the flying geese and blue string blocks - 

 

Only the outer two rows of plain blocks - 

And the black/white flying geese units will show the quilting -

The red flying geese are string blocks - 

So they won't show either -

 

Also - it will be my first "non-panel" quilt with thick seams -

So I don't want to try something fancy that will blow up in my face - 

Not that I can DO fancy yet -

But you know what I mean - LOL -

 

What do you think? - ;))

 

 

 

Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew -
