What is 'burbur' ? Evidently a very heavy fabric?
Are you planning on a quilt as you go .... quilting each block separately?
Do you mean for the serpentine stitch to be all the quilting you are doing? Holding all three layers of your sandwich together? Or will there only be 2 layers...front and back with no batting because of the weight of the backing fabric?
I do think the serpentine stitches you mention will certainly help support your seams. But... do you think they need that support?
Sorry, I don't quite get it yet. I am really interested in other responses too.
Hi Mindless! Berber is a heavy fleece.
I'm not doing "quilt as you go" as my quilt top is complete.
The serpentine stitch that I would do, would be done to the top only. I will so a FMQ after I put the quilt top and Berber together.
I am totally insecure about my seams as I have had two quilts returned with broken seams and open spaces. Because the weight of the Berber, I am thinking my seams need to be secured.
Hope this answers your questions.
My quilt top as shown below!
