E2E with No-Sew Areas

Here's an idea for quilting..... if your quilt includes embroidered blocks or fabric photos and you don't wish the quilting to go over these areas, you might like to consider Edge-to-Edge quilting with No-Sew areas.


Here I have quilted an E2E design over the quilt but I stopped the quilting at the edges of the fabric photo frames.
Actually I can't imagine a time when I would quilt over a fabric photo, it would distort the picture and put holes in the printable fabric.

This family album quilt was made by Christine Price of Albany Creek to celebrate a special anniversary.




The photo to the right is shows a quilt made by Dianne Orr and her friends and family is another example.




Here I have quilted the Alphabet on all the background (sashings and borders) only.










 Later I added more specific quilting to each individual block.


Just some examples of quilting techniques.
