Anyway, I am hand quilting it and it's working out beautifully! I machine pieced it. No problems and soooooooo pretty!! :D
This is interesting, as I have read that this is more difficult with batiks because of the close knit weave. I prefer to hand quilt, so do I need to use a particular size needle and rethink my stitch length? I always pre-wash.
