What I learned while doin' this quilt.;
*I don't seem ta be able ta do larger crumbs. I started a bit larger but just kept makein' 'em smaller & smaller.
*As heavy as the crumbs blocks become it doesn't work ta put wider sashin' between the blocks. They were all wavy & I had ta cut 'em down ta the same size o' the asterisk strips.
* No matter how hard ya try, ya will not (even w/a walkin' foot) have consistent quiltin' stitches. The different thickness makes the top go through the machine very unevenly.
*The wrong color quiltin' thread can spoil a quilt. I used a gray but it looked white & ya could see all the uneveness o' the stitches. I frog stitched it & bought some black then top stitched on both sides o' each black strip instead o' in the ditch. (I couldn't find which box my black thread is in.)
