Design Wall Monday

The Winding Ways parts are all sewn together. The quilt has made a quarter turn clockwise from the initial arrangement of block parts. Next to add a 6 inch border of the scallop fabric then to machine quilt it. Daughter thinks I should quilt with the concentric tear drops that I do so frequently, I think it needs a double ring of stitching in each circle and all the circles will overlap. I want to accentuate the circles because arranging the parts was like having a flash go off in my face. I was seeing spots like an Afterimage which is what I am calling this quilt. I will need an arc for a 15 inch circle for that and I will be machine quilting while sitting at the machine I know there will be lots of challenges or I can send it to someone to machine quilt it that way. Decisions, decisions. --Ann-- Check out Judy's Design Wall Monday and be inspired. Linking to Nina's off the wall Friday to see more of the design process click Winding Ways in the labels section.

Gorgeous!! I always am drawn to the winding ways quilt pattern, it is what I eventually want to make for my bed, but I am too nervous to start that kind of crazy venture for a king sized mattress!

I'm sure the quilting question will come to you when you start the process. Quilts have a way of telling us what they need quilted on them. Have fun with it. After all those curves. It's going to be great!
