wonderful subject! I mentioned making one of the bigboards to my friend, she volunteered her husband to make it for me :lol: Wasn't that nice of her, her hubby is a sweetheart and he would do it for me I am sure, but my own hubby said he will do it :lol: :lol: I got the pattern from the internet www.quiltcampus.net It does suggest, 2 layers of cotton batter and to use a heavy cotton on top, my neighbor using a muslin on top. I will post a pic, when I have it complete, it may be awhile but that is what I have planned. :wink:
