The quilting on these quilts is bold and noticable by using a thread color that stands out against the colors in the quilt top.

Themed designs are fun and add a lot of unique character to a quilt. What theme works for your quilt? Maybe a holiday, a season, or match a design to the fabric in the quilt.
