What Are Quilters Blogging About Today?

I love the iron lace on older houses, and would love some applique lace quilts on the beds, but I already have too many quilts.

Love the second design!

The blank spaces in all my designs with quilting motifs would be filled with simple background fillers, with my first preference being straight lines or cross hatching, either vertical/or diagonal, and would use a thread matching the background for the fillers, contrast for the motifs. The applique pieces would also be outlined just outside the pieces.

I love iron lacework on old buildings, and love the idea of quilts made with similar designs.

Not a lot of applique in the second design, even the border is quilted only.

Colours are not very inspiring, but I rather like this project file, including the two designs selected for today.

The first one is my favourite.

Choose any two colours, cut background squares from one, lacework designs from the other.

I like both designs, and as I haven’t finished my morning coffee I am not going to try to pick a favourite.
