I've been told by a local gal who loves to do felted wool projects to wash and dry the wool prior to cutting or it will be a quilt that has to be dry cleaned. So I'm going to wash it and back it with a veeeeeery light interfacing. She told me wool tends to ravel easily so this feather light interfacing is supposed to keep the edges from misbehaving, but... I still want to really pick people's brains who've made 100% wool quilts.
Thanks in advance!

The lady is correct! I use a felting machine to do small projects and if I were to do a quilt as you say you want to do you should wash and dry the wool for shrinkage before attempting a quilt.
Making a wool quilt is not something I've ever considered since I live in the deep south where our summers are 110+ at times and winters seldom get below 30 degrees and that is just for a few days.
This is something that would be challanging for sure and would be fun to figure out and make.
I'm curious to see what others have to say about it?
