Date: 8/1/12 2:44 PM Still nervous about using unwashed fabric, but this was jelly rolls and no way was I washing those first!
Remember the discussion about what will happen if you use some pre-washed and some unwashed fabric? Well I am about to find out! I had to use fabric from my stash that WAS pre-washed for the borders, we'll see how it comes out once it's dried.
Here are some pics of it done. I wrapped the fleece around to the front to bind it. My family LOVES the soft edge for cuddling purposes.

Date: 8/1/12 8:37 PM I am sooo impressed by your quilting. Looks like you found a great method for doing that. Great work on those mitered borders too... and a fleece backing! Are you quilting with a sharp or a ballpoint to get through the fleece? ------ Janome MC6600 Bernina 240 Juki MO735 Singer 201-2 Singer 221-1 Singer 15-91 |
