Perfect Reason for Washing Quilt before you gift it. . . .
I finished up this quilt tonight and put it thru the washer and dryer. I checked the front and back for any threads and such. I wanted to give it to my classmate tomorrow BUT... when I folded it up to put it in the gift bag, I saw that the only block on my pieced back had frayed and came apart at the seam! I think you could have heard my gasp in the next city!
It is too late tonight to do anything about it but I know that I have quite a task tomorrow to get this fixed. I am just so glad that I washed it and found this area before giving it as a gift.
(colors aren't true, probably not enough lights on!)
