Quilter 1234,

Go for it girl! Bible school in Northfield... who would have thunk it?

I am glad to know that there are a few here that does know where I am!

Get that white on white, baste it closely by hand. It is easiest that way because you just quilt over the thread. Use white thread to bastem but not quilting thread. I baste about 2.5 to 3" apart in a grid all over the quilt top. And then I sit down with the quilt in my lap (I don't use a frame for this) and quilt. I use white thread keeping it pristine. They are truly lovely when done.

Take care...

Anita in Northfield
