“So, how do you want it quilted?” Should you go for the custom quilting or the economical edge to edge quilting? Sometimes it’s the quilts decision! Here are 2 quilts from the same customer using the same fabrics, same batting and about the same size. One quilt is custom, one quilt is E2E and when you look at the pictures you’ll see why. The overall quilting adds texture and detail and is the best quilting option for quilt 1. The custom quilting with border, block, sashing and background fill designs, along with 3 different thread choices really makes this quilt stand out, making it the best option for quilt 2.

My Leftover Blues Quilt
This quilt pattern, Just a Nickel, is designed by Candace for her Double Nickel Quilt Challenge. Check out her blog at http://doublenickelquilts.blogspot.com/ . It’s a very fast and easy quilt to put together. I used leftover blue squares from another project and whatever white on white fabric I could find in my stash. I had a few blue blocks to put into the backing fabric, too. The quilting is simple with randomly spaced straight lines. I used Quilter’s Dream Puff batting which is very light and gives a nice lofty feel!

New favorite pantograph
Here’s a new pantograph that’s great for baby or kid’s quilts. It’s very fun and whimsical. It’s called Butterflies and Loops by Sue Schmieden. Wendy’s quilt is very graphic with bright fabric and black thread. Karen’s more subtle with modern fabric and white thread.
