5 Must-Have Background Quilting Designs
Have you tried background quilting on your home embroidery machine? It's a total game-changer! 😊
Whether you do our Block-by-Block quilting method or use our (revolutionary!) Clear Blue Tiles®, background quilting adds warmth, texture, and beauty to your machine embroidery projects.
Tip: If you're wondering what the difference is between Block-by-Block and Clear Blue Tiles quilting, please read all about it HERE!
We sat down with Liz, Kimberbell's background quilting manager, to see which background quilting designs are her very favorites. Here are Liz's top five, which we feel are must-haves for every quilting library!
#1: Plant 3
With swirling vines and lovely leaves, our Plant 3 design is versatile for a wide variety of projects. This design is available for both our Block-by-Block and Clear Blue Tiles quilting methods!
#2: Christmas 10
Our Santa, sleigh, and reindeer pattern make Christmas 10 the perfect touch for your next holiday project. It's shown on an orange background because this design is used with our Block-by-Block quilting method.
#3: Space 1
Kimberbell's Space 1 design is a total BLAST with rockets, planets, and more. This design works with both our Block-by-Block and Clear Blue Tiles methods and boldly goes where no quilting design has gone before . . .
#4: Christmas Border 6
Kimberbell's Christmas Border 6 is shown in grey (which designates a border design) and actually comes with two parts: the lyrics of "Joy to the World" and a beautiful Bethlehem skyline. How darling is that?
Note: Christmas Border 6 is shown on the Nativity Bench Pillow at the top of this post! ✨
#5: Mythic 2
And here's a brand-new design for both Block by Block and Clear Blue Tiles: Mythic 2! Perfect for little girls and fantasy lovers, Mythic 2 features sweet rainbows, shooting stars, hearts, and unicorns. 🦄
