I have a batting room.

Right now, I really like the Legacy by Pellon, 80/20
Oh, Sue, the perfect person to ask! I'm hand quilting one with Legacy 80/20 right now. It's bearding really bad through the light colors and the narrow black sashing. On the black border, I had to insert a thin white cotton trying to block the fibers coming through to the black. My LQS said they had never noticed the problem before. What am I doing wrong? How can I stop it? Didn't notice it until I got about 75% done quilting. Of course, I will wash it when I finish. It would freak out my MIL to see it the way it is! Thank you for any suggestions or solutions!
