Free Motion Friday - Choosing a Quilting Pattern

I'm currently working on some wonky Christmas Trees.  But....how to quilt it?  I want it to look like snow.  I'm having fun drawing ideas on a piece of plastic overlaid on top of the quilt.  Here are some thoughts...


I think the extra line at the top of the trees looks.......weird.  Not quilt right.  Perhaps if the top line is darker and the bottom is white?  Hmm...




What about putting squiggles between the lines?  Eh....looks weird.


Or filling the whole area?  I love the texture, but it's still not right.  Too dense?


I'll keep fiddling around and see what happens.  Now to see if I have any fuzzy white yarn.....

I hope you get to quilt today!

  1. It will be fun to see what you come up with. You know how the wind often kicks up a swirl of snow? It kind of spins up and swirls and then it's gone? Maybe you could do something like that between the trees? Anyway, I know you'll come up with something delightfully fun.
