Can you please explain what you mean by " sewing them in a pillow case"? I'm guessing you mak the quilt, then put it into a pillow case that is either sewn or you could tie it tightly, then wash it.
I have neve made one but would like to know the best way to eliminate the lint problem. This discussion has given me great information.
Thanks for all the info.
