Now I have a dire question...how in the world do I quilt this thing? Usually I can stand back and look at my projects and get an idea of what to do, but not this time. I originally thought of using a colored thread and pretending I was creating a wallpaper design on the white, but the dishes are going to have to be quilted as well. I'm just not sure how I want to do it.
I received a correction from my daughter regarding the elves rapelling yesterday. She told her dad that they had accidentally gotten locked out and were attempting to get back inside the house. I had said they were escaping. I stand corrected!
This morning they ventured farther out and were found in my car. It took the kids forever to find them and I think they were getting a bit concerned.

Love the "dishes". You could stitch in the ditch around the dishes, then stitch the white like wall paper. I think it would make the dishes look a little 3D.
Love the elves!
I am no expert on quilting..but I would stipple white on white on the background to keep the dishes as the focus, and probably echo the lines of the inside of the plates and cups.
hahaha! I love the elf on the steering wheel!
The dishes look so good! I don't know about quilting either. You could do 1/4 in inside the edges of the dishes, then "wallpaper" on the white? Tricky!! Good luck!
I just love those darn elves. I am no help with how to quilt that lovely wall hanging though.
Love the plates - stitch in the ditch for the plates and then do your wall paper - and those elves! I bet they are more careful about where they go tonight!
Funny about the elves.
Alex Anderson said one time that if all else fails, do a grid.
