Catching Up on the Dreamcatcher – Round the Year Quilt

A lot many visitors, a short vacation, a couple of sicknesses – life has been quite topsy-turvy at this end. Finally got to do some quilting on the second panel of the quilt. 

 

The second quilt-as-you-go panel …
 
A glimpse of the back…Don’t you love the backing fabric? Tina Katwal of The Square Inch found it for me! 

  

The quilt back! I got a gift of Sulky threads from my son ; am really enjoying fmq now!

I am a bit undecided about the outermost dark blue. How do you think I should quilt it?  And then, should the quilt thread be a shade lighter that shows up the quilting or a matching dark blue that merges into it?  What do you suggest? 

While you decide, here is a closer look at the two blocks I quilted last week.

The third panel is all basted – I hope I can get some quilting done tomorrow too! Happy quilting to you!
