Night Flowers - Quilting Options

I'm playing with quilting designs for Night Flight. First, I picked out the threads. Mmm, yummy! Yep, I'm going to mix it up with different thread weights and brands. I'm such a badass.

Next, I tried some different motifs with dry erase markers on my plexiglass trial quilting sheets.

First up, matchstick quilting with triangular spirals.


That's a lot of starts and stops.

Arrow spirals. I like that flow a lot better and somewhat fewer stops and starts. 


Maybe something different in the negative space though, like this maze.


Or maybe a smaller version.

And then I decided to play with the walking foot quilting style I learned from Heather Lair.


I'm definitely smitten with one of them. Can you guess which one?

Have an awesome day!
