Make sure you cut big enough,when quilting,so you have enough of the fabric , because the quilting makes it smaller. And the more I made the better I became at fitting. I started with a pattern,from one I had worn out from kitchen aid. My best fit came when I took to appliance hand pinned and fitted.
Aha! That's exactly what I want to do! But I'll piece it and quilt it myself. Thank you everyone for the advice! I wouldn't have thought about using a thinner batting (I'm new at this), but that's a great idea. I'll post pics when I'm done. Thanks!
