A friend gave me a stash of lovely corduroy in various colors, weights, and wale widths, wanting me to make her a quilt.
I decided to do a modified log cabin with an 8" center square and 2 sets of 2" strips.
Unfortunately she seems to want it done by machine and I much prefer doing both the piecing and the quilting by hand, as I can get things to match up more easily that way.
I'm wondering if the problem is that I made my strips too narrow (2" wide) for the wider wale ones to stitch right.
Also the tiny wale width strips seem to be stretching as I sew.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
