    Do you stitch in the ditch around every pieced seam in the quilt or just around the blocks?

  3. Leah Day says:

    NVD – Ditching for a quilt like this would be around every area that has a different design. So if you have a design in tear drop shapes, obviously stitch around the shape, then fill with the design. If you ignore seams, you don't have to ditch them, but definitely ditch around each block and each area where there is a different design.

    Of course, this is my opinion based on the best way for the quilt to look on the front and back. It's your quilt and you can quilt it any way you like!

    Cheers,

    Leah Day
