postage stamp finally quilted
I had to stretch the heck out of this one. DH doesn't iron his seams on these things and I think he cuts a lot of his scraps on the bias because I sure had a lot of trouble with the edges. I stitched a border around it for quilting purposes so that I would not pull out any seams. I don't know if it helped or not. I finally wound up floating the top and stretching it by hands as I basted it in. It turned out pretty good. I didn't really lay it out straight is why it looks lumpy. Its really not. The back looks great! I don't know how he has the patience to sew all of those tiny blocks. But, I can tell you that no scrap of fabric is wasted in this house. What do you think?
