I don't think she washed the fabric and she pressed the seams open..I will be using a 80 20 batting..I will try the stitch in the ditch, I'm not real good at that and I will be quilting this on my sit down sweet sixteen..Thanks for your advice
Do not do Stitch in the ditch on this. With the seams pressed open and that huge stitch length you will not be reinforcing the top with quilting by just doing ditching. If you hit the ditch dead on you won't catch any of the top fabric and won't be reinforcing the already compromised seams. I would recommend quilting right next to every seam on both sides of the seam. Or a very dense all over.
