    Handkerchief Quilt - Quilting

    I have taken on the task of quilting a handkerchief quilt and don't know where to start. Does anyone know where I can find examples of 'quilting' done on handkerchief quilts? I can find several pictures of these quilts but the quilting of said is not visible. Any help is appreciated.

    You might get some ideas from TQS Show #202 with Cindy Needham. Also check out the gallery of quilts on her website for some major inspiration!

      Thank you Margo for the advice. I did watch episode #202 and found the show very informative. I would still like to hear from anyone who might have seen a quilt pieced with several blocks of applique'd handkerchiefs. My concern is this, it seams to me that each block should be quilted differently, so how can I make the entire quilt cohesive? (One of the handkerchiefs is even circular)It's more or less a sampler of sorts. I will try to post a picture of the top if I am able to take a decent one.

        American School of Needlework have a booklet "Hanky-Panky Crazy Quilts" by Cindy Brick. This is about Handkerchief used in small quilts. Episode 409 (April 2009) is with Cindy Brick. You could wait and see.

        I Live in Denmark, and watch TQS on the internet, so sorry it my spelling is't right.
