I am making my firstvquilt with flannel. I pre washed and ironed with starch. Fabric still stretched but I am making it work. The back will be fleece. My LQS suggested that I not quilt it but let them do it as fleece shifts. I am a new quilter, less than one year. This is a baby quilt for my great niece. I have only Stitched in ditch or done straight line quilting with tape. I would like to do this whole project myself. Any advice?
