This quilt was not really bigger than a double/queen quilt but the quilter sent along a much more dense/compact batting than the standard quilt batting. This made advancing the quilt towards the lower part, rather difficult.
About
midway through the quilting, I noticed that I was unable to regulate my stitch
lengths but I thought it must be due to the density and hoped the problem would
resolve itself. Furthermore, the top had
plenty of fullness and hampered smooth quilting as I regularly found puckers building up.
The quilter
had an applique motif near the centre and I used this as my idea of what to do
on the large white corners.
I used different motifs on the inner part to finish this and by handling the quilt one can clearly feel how much heavier it is compared to other quilts of the same size due to the denser batting.
