Next question for making 1st quilt (flannel for baby)
Hi Everyone...I am making a flannel baby quilt for my friend's granddaughter. The front is a panel but the back I am using 5" square pieces (sort of scrappy).
My questions are: 1. do I use 1/4" seam allowance or bigger?
2. If I use my regular foot to piece...do I need to use a walking foot to quilt since there is no batting?
3. If I need to use my walking foot...why? This is where it is not sinking into my brain.
Since I am only quilting 2 pieces of fabric (just like piecing the 5" blocks)...why do I need the walking foot?
4. Do I need to use less tension since this is flannel?
5. Final Question..do I need to use different stitch length?
You helped me so much with the needle question and I am looking forward for any help/suggestions on this project.
