Quilting is underway on the charity quilt.
I was going to go with a horizontal stipple to contrast with the straight lines of the crosses, but when I started quilting, it didn’t seem to be a good fit. So, I ripped it out.
And then I tried straight line spiraling and loved it!
10 blocks done, 20 to go!

I agree. That straight line spiral was a good choice. I have heard the advice that you should straight line stitch curvy quilt and curvy line stitch a linear pattern quilt but that rarely seems to work for me when I try it. I really like the effect of what you have done. Sorry that you had to rip out to learn though. Bummer
This is going to be very striking, Nicole! Sorry you had to do some 'unsewing'!
Looking good! I'm lovin all these plus/cross blocks that seem to be around the blogosphere these days. Might even have to make myself one! 🙂
Very cool quilting. Looking forward to this one
Looking good!!
I'm loving this quilt.
Oh this is fun! Kind of like what I've done a couple of times with my walking foot – I really enjoy it too!
