ALso Sewbizgirl you said that you quilt each row as you do...need to know how to do that. Please explain
I'm going to check with the two shops near me tomorrow and see if they have gotten a winner yet.
Barb, look up "Quilt-As-You-Go" or QAYG online. It will show you the technique. Basically you sandwich and quilt each row (or block) individually, and then join them up with strips. The strips then look like skinny sashing. This was my first attempt at a QAYG. Loved quilting the individual rows, but not crazy about the joining... I got to use up a bunch of scrap batting strips since my pieces only needed to be 9.5" x 36.5". I had several pieces about that size that I cut off batting for other quilts.
