Listen to Your Quilt: Select the Perfect Quilting Every Time - 4 Simple Steps

‘Listen to Your Quilt’ by Barbara Persing is a book that helps you decide how to quilt your pieced quilt top as the finishing touch to your quilt project. Included in the back of the book are several pages of allover quilting designs, and the steps in producing these designs.
Barbara Persing did a wonderful job of critiquing many quilts and how they should be quilted. She says there are 4 steps to brainstorm what you need. The steps are:
1. Decide on the category of your quilt such as child/youth; traditional; contemporary; or art quilt.
2. Determine the use of your quilt- show piece, bed, wall, etc.
3. Brainstorm what would enhance your quilt.
4. Select your thread color.
‘Listen to Your Quilt’ shows good examples and answers show more questions about how to quilt your quilt. Persing’s book is a great learning tool, but I wish a few of the quilts showed bigger or more detailed pictures of the quilting she did, but overall, it is a great book!
