You probably should go for authentic. Just watch where you are aiming
the nail gun if you use that. The news had another guy that had a nail from a nail gun in his head last week. Yikes!

They give me the creaps. John |

I made a small wooden crazy 'quilt', with favourite pieces of veneer,
when I decided that my marquetry days were over and I was committed to P&Q. Had I known more about P&Q, I would have done as Sunny suggested and I would have made a block or two. However, it remains as the link between two passions. .. In message , John writes Wood Quilt. Hmm. Let me think about that. There are definite possibilities there.

You could do both. I sew the binding on them hand sew it. So doing both
would be authentic. -- Jane http://windigothreads.shutterfly.com John wrote: I wonder if you would need to attach the binding with a nail gun, or glue. Glue would be so hand quilty rather than machine quilty with the nail gun. Authenticity is so important, when you are quilting. John |

I also do both. I was just tweaking the quilt police among us. John |
