I let it try and when I took the pins out it soon learned just who was in control. I'm not sure this will work for you with the batting and quilting but it might be worth a try, I had blocked my quilt like this before I sandwiched it?
Let us know if you try it, I would like to know.
Thanks, this has Osnaburg batting, It kind looks like burlap. I sure can't iron it out.
