I made three of these last year for Christmas, sent to HI for my DIL and 2 DGD. They love them. I now have the towel to make one for my son, he is due home from Iraq by the end of July.

I spray basted them to the back of the towel and loaded on my frame as one piece. slick
How heavily does it need to be quilted to prevent it from puckering when it shrinks? Did you preshrink the towel and fabric first? I generally prewash everything, just curious how it handles after a few washes.
