Quilting a Collage Quilt

Join me while I work on quilting the "Summer Harvest" collage quilt pattern for my mom! We'll chat about troubleshooting, tension settings, using metallic thread and how to make sure you can get through all those layers.

I’m getting ready to quilt my first collage quilt, and your video is so helpful! Thank you for all your tips. Love those beautiful poinsettias!

Hi Lana! Yay, they really are so fun to work on! Glad this could help you a bit! Have fun quilting! ☺️ Enjoli

Great video. I like how you switch background patterns. Have you ever done a crosshatch on the background? Would that be too challenging?

[@doodlequiltingstudio417]

Thanks Jennifer! Yes, I have done crosshatching in a few others. Not too challenging - you could do a few reference markings to keep you on track or just do it one background piece at a time depending on how you want it to look!

If you’d turn your phone or camera sideways it will give a full screen view and we’d be able to see better what you’re trying to show us. As it is now it just a narrow view.

What batting do you typically use to quilt collage quilts? It almost looks like you are using flannel. I’m Dreaming of a Q24!

[@doodlequiltingstudio417]

Hi there - I am typically using Quilters Dream Bamboo. It is a blend of cotton, bamboo, silk and tencel. Its nice because it doesn't add bulk but still gives nice dimension to the quilting! :) The Q24 is really a great machine! Happy Quilting! Enjoli

What kind of machine is that ?

Hi there! It is a Bernina Q24 on the 13 foot pro frame!
