Fusible batting - Thanks by aluap
Wow, thanks everyone for your responses to my fusible batting question! I don't want to take up too much room, so I'll respond to all he IMS: I have an "extra" Sunbonnet Sue on a 12-inch block, so I think I will try the fusible for a pillow with that one before I attempt the quilt. Patti: ...

Fusible batting by aluap
Hi, Has anyone had any experience using fusible batting? I have finished a Sunbonnet Sue quilt top (lap/crib size) for my grandniece and am thinking of using the fusible. I'm new to quilting, and I've only made a few other quilts using regular batting and wonder if the fusible works...

OT - Time for a gentle push? by Johanna Gibson
My future landlady, Mary (elder sister of one of my supervisors at work) tripped over a pebble while walking on the beach near Inverness on Thursday and ended up breaking her ankle in 3 places. Because of the location, the ambulance couldn't get anywhere near here, and they couldn't winch her up...

Judging quilts and bindings . . . . by Donna in Idaho
I recently helped judge the needlework (including quilts) at our county fair. My partner is the owner of one of our LQS's. First off, I was very disappointed since I know that there are some wonderful quilters in our area - not a one of them entered a quilt in the fair. No, I didn't look at the...

Question about Fat quarters and fat eights by Bonnie
Hi All, Another question: do you prewash fat quarters and fat eights? How do you do this? Usually I just toss the fabric into the washer and then the dryer. It doesn't matter if the ends fray on large pieces of fabric, but on a fat quarter or fat eight it might make a big difference. -- Bonnie NJ

Plano Texas Quilt Show by nana2b
I went to Plano Show and it was very nice. A nice collection of beautiful quilts. Lots of Trapunto treatments with crystals. The one I liked the most was a scrappy pin wheel quilt that had 17,380 pieces. It took 3 years to make and was hand quilted in a diagonal pattern. It looked like a...

If we are talking about the same thing it is quite possible to birth or bag a quilt nicely. I used to do mine that way too since binding isnt...
