Save the Bees is on deck!
I decided to do some ribbon quilting in the white border. It had a bit of fullness and needed a more intense pattern than the straight line quilting I had intended to do in that space.
Can you spot the one random overlapping ribbon! |
Believe me, there is a lot to think about as you try to keep the sewing machine speed even and the stitch length consistent.
These are not achievable goals of course, but they are something to aim for.
It's hard to photograph white quilting on white fabric, but I hope you can see the texture that the ribbon quilting creates. YUM!

The quilting looks perfect in that border, good job!
that looks great. I almost always have some fullness in my quilts - I am just not precise enough of a piecer for it to be perfect and wonder how some people do it. I have ordered a book that tells you how to achieve this I wonder if it will help me!
Love your ribbon quilting! Looks like Save the Bees will soon be done!
Looks great! I need to practice this one!
Gorgeous piece and quilting--Love that flower hugs, Julierose
You have done such a great job - it looks beautiful!
This looks great. It does achieve a honeycomb-like look. Te ribbon motif is one I have trouble with. I can't keep it straight, the loops begin to slant. Your quilt was one of my favorites in this project.

Lovely curved ribbons--great job--it sure wouldn't of looked that neat if I had been doing it--and a pretty quilt too--
luv, di
Looks to me as though you did a beautiful job of achieving the unachievable!
Intense quilting seems a bit much for my skills, but I really like your version.
Your ribbons look great! That's a difficult shape for me.
the quilting is beautiful. It certainly show up well. What type machine and FMQ foot is that. I love the size of the foot..
Your ribbon quilting is beautiful. You are so inspiring. I have a lap size quilt I want to quilt on my domestic, but am worried I won't get it basted well enough and that it will end up with wrinkles in it. Any suggestions?
Your ribbon quilting is beautiful. That is be of my favorites to do.
Beautiful quilting, looks like you've done a good job of mastering the technique.
The ribbon quilting is beautiful...looks sort of like a beehive!
