As I read this topic I am hoping that when your dh does make this for you , you iwll come back with pictures to show us. Love giving my dh things to keep him busy.
And then I read...do you baste....uhoh.....I never baste andnever will and I am a handquilter. I start the project in in the center of the Joann's pvc frame and then when I move it I go up, down, left , right and so on until I reach the edges....never a lump or bump in my quilts.
Of course, I am the kind of handquilter who uses every shortcut possible and still come out with a nice finished project.
Lots of good ideas and suggestions here.
And all the links were good one. Thanks to all.
