A friend of mine recently brought me a quilt that her sister made for her teenage dd. It was in awful shape. She used wonder-under for each t-shirt and affixed them to a black sheet. I felt so bad knowing it would fall apart after the first washing. She used a cheap poly batting and finished it like a pillowcase. I took it apart and satin stitched around each t-shirt. Then used Warm and Natural batting. Put it on my quilting frame, stippled around each t-shirt and bought a cute red and black fabric for the binding. I thought it came out great, but let me tell you....it was alot of work. I did it mainly to gain more experience on FMQ and it was the first time I used my frame. I FMQ'd it with my Bernina 430 with the BSR. Everyone loved it.
