I'm so happy! Today I recieved the plain Cuddle Minky that was purchased from Fabric.com. I pulled it out of the box and it felt like it had just come from the dryer since it's almost 100 degrees today. But the cuddle Minky is like petting a baby rabbit--it could not be any softer. Perfect for a quilt back.

I have made several throw quilts using Minky on the back and the one we kept is our favorite quilt. In fact, my husband and I will run to see who gets it first in the winter.

My question is, has anybody ever quilted Minky on a regular sewing machine? My Sapphire has a 10 inch throat but I've always asked my LA quilter to quilt Minky. I'm thinking it would slip and slide all over the place plus would be heavy to wrestle around. Any thoughts or tips are very much appreciated.

Thanks, Mary
