I think I will use painters tape and tape the bloomin' stencil down to the quilt before I mark it to hold it in place. I found it slides a little bit when I mark it. So far it is comming out fine. Doesn't hurt to try to get it quilted. I don't know any long armers and that is quite expensive any how. Sooooo I'll just quilt it myself and maybe if I ever get rich and famous,,, I'll get a long arm. Have a great day, Huggies, Fay
