Hi
I have only made 2 very simple quilts. My daughter picked out some very hard to work with material for me to make a quit for her newborn daughter. This material and pattern are out of my league!!!! Is there anyone in the Port Saint Lucie area of Fl that would be willing to help me finally get this done???? Thank You Grammy Carol

first of all thank you for wanting to help me. the larger squares have borders around them that have stripes....very hard getting them straight. My biggest problem is the back and some of the larger square are a fluffy blanletty, very stretchie material. I'm not sure how to get the back square. It's also very large 60' x58'.

Do you already have the quilt sandwiched ? If not do you have a bigger work area to lay it out on ?
