Lucky Charms Quilting -- part 9

It is week nine of the Lucky Charms quilting videos and I am finally quilting the background of the applique!


I pulled out my roll of Quilter's Preview Paper and drew different backgrounds to see which one would best show off the applique.


I tried pebbles:




and feathers:




and swirls:



and meandering:



Looking at them side-by-side:



I decided that I liked feathers the best!



The thread: InvisiFil in the top and bobbin

The needle: size 14






A view of the finished block:




Next week I am going to add a little bit more quilting to the center, and then this quilt is done!


If you missed the videos from previous weeks, I linked to them below.

Deb,
As always you make it look so easy! I hope when you've shown all the quilting that you show us a great picture from the back of that quilt. It IS wonderful. Gail

Love how it looks! And I love how you decide. I must try that plastic and wipe off pen idea! Genius!
