DO you wash it first? Do you tie it?
All the quilts have minumal machine quilting. That is why I use Warm and Natural batting it can be quilted up to 10 inches apart. I wash the quilt before using it as I do the fleece blanket. We also use flannel sheets. Most quilts are 100% cotton LQS fabrics. I am not sure if I was clear in the post above. I do not attach the fleece blanket. They just use it under the quilt with the quilt over it. sometimes I do make quilts, mostly kids or lap quilts, with fleece on one side but I find it hard to attach them as it is slippery. I free motion quilt it.
