Today, I am sharing big circle quilting. I think it is a perfect choice for this quilt. The circles and orange slices repeat the design of the whimsical fabric.
The big circles and orange slices really add a cool twist to this quilt.
I used a thread color called pearl. It looks like a very lite grey.
It works perfectly, because it isn't a stark white thread and it lightly shows on the back and blends nicely on the front of the quilt.
The circles range in size from 2 inches to 4 inches in diameter. The orange slices are about 3 to 4 inches.
The big circle quilting is a perfect choice for this quilt!
Have a great day!

It looks great and that's such a cute design! I'm actually working on a table runner w/ similar shades but a black backing and have been struggling with what color to use for the quilting. Gray sounds like a great color-thanks for the idea!
Love the colors of this quilt - and the circle quilting does work so well with it.
Love the colors in this quilt! The circles make such a great pattern too!
What a fun quilting design! Keep up the great work! :)
The "orange slice" quilt design really works well with this quilt. Red, white, and black always look good together.
lovely quilt and quilting!
That looks great. I am new to quilting and so ask too many questions. But I must ask. I quilted my first machine quilted quilt last week I believe you call it in the ditch. I want to freestyle quilt can you do those on just a regular sewing machine?
