On the Frame Tips


There are many types of quilting, panographs, custom quilting where there is lots of stitch in the ditch and every block/border quilted differently and free hand all over designs. The last is what I do.

This is a customer quilt that has been on the frame this week. She wanted an all over design but didn't want the appliques quilted over. I was afraid I would get on a roll and start quilting over them so each time I rolled the quilt I would mark the applique with a piece of paper. That way as I got close it would alert me to NOT quilt over those shapes.

I am sure there is a better way to do it but this worked for me just fine.
