I have a sunbonnet sue quilt that is all hand appliqued, I have been reluctant to get quilted because I know what I want done and am afraid it won't come out like I want it. So it sits as a UFO in a box...it was my DGD's Christmas gift from last year. Maybe I will get it done for her this year. Guess I better get movin' cause it's mid Sept already huh?? crafty_linda_b
Talk to quilters that you know who have sent their quilts to LAQ that they are happy with. A good LAQ will do exactly what you want.
