I made some very fancy satin pajamas and had no trouble at all. I did them with my serger and will use my serger for the seams on this quilt. It only has three pieces on the front. Only the center piece is quilted and only the top piece is embroidered. Because it is satin the seam allowances given are 5/8" but I'm thinking serging will do better. Where the top and bottom border attach to the center piece (after it is already quilted) the edge that is attached is scalloped in 2" scallops. That will have to be done by straight stitching. The lining is birthed. It is also pale green satin.
