I started a unique quilt several months ago (my first one ever) and was so appreciative of the suggestions I received here. I have finished my 42 blocks and am ready to start putting sashes and cornerstones between the pieces. All of the blocks have been made from vintage needlework done by my mother-in-law (embroidery, crochet, applique on dresser scarves, tablecloths, napkins, pillowcases, etc.). I have backed all of the pieces with thin stabilizer because of the loose weave of the background material and the need to repair some of the embroidery. Depending on the original fabric, the blocks are uniform in thickness. Should I add another thin layer of something to the thinner blocks so that all are approximately the same thickness? Thanks for any advice you may have.
