This quilt is destined to be a Christmas present so I HAVE to "get over it" and get back to work on it, hopefully today. I couldn't even scream and stomp around when I found it though, my DH was still sleeping! LOL

I'm less frustrated now. Going to go do a little "shopping therapy" and pick it back up later this afternoon when I can look at it without wanting to bang my head against the wall!
Could you wrap the batting on plywood or something and have it propped against the wall? Even large sheets of foam core or something might work. Nice thing about either of those options is it's also movable if you change the design of your house. Good luck!!
