Redundant but I agree with everyone else concerning the amount of stitching. Unless you are planning this as a wall hanging, I definitely would NOT add any more quilting because then the quilt will be too stiff to be cozy. I learned that one the hard way. :roll:

John Flynn has an interesting method of adding trupunto to a quilt after it has been sandwiched. He uses a rod with the wadding (stuffing) at the end, threads it through the sandwhich from the side (before you bind it), and somehow releases it in just the right spot. I saw it on Simply Quilts a few years back and had forgotten about it until I read about it on his website recently. Of course I just looked through his website and can't find anything on this method. :roll: Does anyone else know what I'm talking about and perhaps has a website talking about this bookmarked?
