a rescue project
a friend was down- sizing some of her things - and included with this stuff was a started quillow - made of fabrics with a high ratio of polyester and 1/4 inch thick polyester batting.
made by the birthing metod - which i do not recommend - because it is such a wrestling match to get the fabrics to lay flat when it is turned right side out.
anyway, i could not get this thing to lay flat. i took it apart to try to figure out why it would not lay flat. turned out that the batting was about 1/2 inch too narrow and about two inches too short when it was relaxed. the short end was not evenly short - it was about two inches short on one side and about three inches sbort on the other.
the pont of this - the batting had enough substance/memory to not want to stretch and therefore the outer fabrics would never - ever- lay flat.
right now the pieces are waiting for me to decide what do do with them.
