Hi!

I made a 9 layer quilt. First three(or 4 layers) were a quilt as you go block that I put into a top. I'd bought 64 of these from ebay a while ago, they are zigged on in a crazy quilt fashion, so all 3 or 4 layers are secure. The next 3 layers is a pre quilted piece of cloth. Next layer is a 6 oz poly batt. Final layer is a fleece.

I quilted around 4-5 inches apart on it, just basic squares randomly with some fm quilting(I tried and failed, just too thick)

When I took it to my quilting group, she said that it would not wash well, but would bunch up and be a big mess. Is that true? I'm think that it might not, on account of the blocks and prequilted fabric being secured. Then again, perhaps not. I am hoping to sell it, so this info is badly needed. It's 59 square.

Thank you so much,
EMily
