Great border for the strawberry quilt. I don't have much experience with quilting stitched blocks. My personal preference would be to not quilt through the stitching as it would detract from the stitching. Maybe a little outline quilting with cross-hatching in the background?Sharihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18308423156191499365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1252320607766646025.post-17465621823244572182011-06-24T09:06:49.323-05:002011-06-24T09:06:49.323-05:00Love those row houses...hehhhh great work...did yo...Love those row houses...hehhhh great work...did you end up using finca threads in diff't colors...? and that strawberry basket I recognize that lol...love the border...way to go...I think you should stitch circles lol...no diamonds..no small squares...lolSparkyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17456305568995973018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1252320607766646025.post-85694527873674531692011-06-24T08:15:31.598-05:002011-06-24T08:15:31.598-05:00Absolutely love your Row House Wall Hanging :) Con...Absolutely love your Row House Wall Hanging :) Congrats on a gorgeous finish!Stray Stitches (Linda G)https://www.blogger.com/profile/13745220686468103536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1252320607766646025.post-30666993373467406602011-06-24T08:14:13.663-05:002011-06-24T08:14:13.663-05:00Cross hatching is definitely the way to go, but no...Cross hatching is definitely the way to go, but not through the embroidered stitches. This is always a dilemma for me - which is also why my embroidered quilts are not quilted, so I can't really advise. Lol I will be interested in your comments. The row house quilt is so daring.

The strawberry basket looks like a wall hanging - if that's the case I would stitch around it and then do your cross hatch or whatever you want outside the stitchery area. If it was going to get heavy use then quilting in the embroidery would help it stay together. I think that quilting would detract from the look of your sweet stitching to some degree though.Janethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17104565945520530658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1252320607766646025.post-79836015167021263182011-06-23T20:52:43.419-05:002011-06-23T20:52:43.419-05:00Your houses are lovely Jane!Your houses are lovely Jane!Mary on Lake Pulaskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16965950454417494966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1252320607766646025.post-44973588353728470662011-06-23T20:33:17.272-05:002011-06-23T20:33:17.272-05:00Jane I've done both - stitched through the emb...Jane I've done both - stitched through the embroidery and avoided stitching through the embroidery. If you don't stitch through it then the embroidered part will sort of pop out...even puff up a little. Sometimes I like that look and sometimes not. I almost think that because the basket is large compared to the background you're going to need to do some quilting in the embroidery in addition to the background. Maybe just the basket part? blessings, marleneStitchinByTheLakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04501479854150315011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1252320607766646025.post-30053425330114002252011-06-23T20:13:32.936-05:002011-06-23T20:13:32.936-05:00I agree with Vrooman's Quilts...quilt around t...I agree with Vrooman's Quilts...quilt around the embroidery, but don't quilt the embroidery.

As for stitching your embroidery - don't know the size, cross-hatch your border blocks - echo line out the corners - I don't stitch thru embroidery, just echo stitch around main design - you could add some 'ties' or even little green beads in center of leaf clusters to help tack.Vroomans' Quiltshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07258050499246235109noreply@blogger.com
